RE: Qwest PSTN problems / status page?
We are currently having outbound long distance issues via Qwest right now. A PSTN status page would be rather convenient at this moment.

Is anyone aware of a network status page for Qwest PSTN. We have been told they are currently experiencing a major outage and "All calls are failing out-going" (which isn't true as I've made some calls, but am seeing intermittent congestion returned on our PRIs) I have also heard that it... "Seems to be on the public switching network.Seattle can call out, Minneapolis & Ohio can't." (We first noticed it WRT LD calls, and my first test was to OH and that succeeded, so whatever it is clearly is intermittent). Mike

Most telecom providers don't *have* status pages, for the same reason that most telecom problem tickets "mysteriously" clear: they have to report their problem metrics to the government, and if they don't admit to the problem, it makes their numbers look better. "The trouble's leaving here fine!" I do have a reasonably large list of other types of status pages collected here: http://www.microsys.us/status Any contributions from other people's crib notes won't go amiss...
