IXC Fibre cut IL,OH

  • From: Bradley Reynolds
  • Date: Sat Sep 19 15:12:39 1998 
IXC communications currently has more than a hundred ds3s
cut.  The outage started at 0830 CDT on 9/19/98.  
All ds3s that I have isolated traverse their fibre route
between cleveland and downtown chicago.  The outage seems to affect
the chicago area primarily.

IXC was unable to provide ETR.

On a side-note, if you are in the ameritech service area, 
ixc's 800 number translation is not working.  You get to
hear a non-standard 'all circuits are busy'.   If you need
to reach them, call their austin number 5124273700
