Qwest PSTN problems / status page?
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
Their VoIP LD service is also affected.. from my initial understanding it affects a variety of inter-lata calls. Some inter-lata calls are down hard.. others are intermittent. This holds true for calls between latas where qwest is the ILEC. Ex: denver to somewhere in omaha (another qwest number). Mike Lewinski wrote:

Qwest reportedly *just* signed a new union contract today; perhaps some people didn't get the memo? http://news.google.com/news?q=qwest+-field Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.

Considering the way some ds1 repeaters have just vanished from qwest central offices today - I'd have to agree with that thought.
