A little after 1900 we started to see the world light back up, from our FIO=
S connected perspective. I'm utterly shocked at the lack of network status=
, support, status message on indefinite hold, etc...
We've been seeing a progressively worse VZ FIOS connection over the last fe=
w months -- this outage today makes me wonder how they've got this service =
designed........ was very odd...
