Hi, folks,
All 30 of the DIDs I have at one of VOIP providers, Vitelity.net, have =
been offline for more than 8 hours as of this writing.
Vitelity quickly acknowledged the problem, and are characterizing this =
as a "global DID outage" at XO Communications, affecting "over 100,000 =
of [Vitelity's] DIDs alone and many others throughout [XO's] network." =
Now, I know major outages do happen, and service with Vitelity has been =
generally good, but 8 hours and counting is pretty awful.
I'm worried that this may in fact be the result of a contract dispute of =
some kind between Vitelity and XO, and, if so, that this may be an even =
bigger problem for me than it already is.
Can anyone else confirm Vitelity's report of widespread outages with XO?
thanks,
Graham
