AT&T is “working to address a software issue” that is impacting its wireless network, a company spokesperson said in an email to CNN Tuesday night.
“We are working to address a software issue that may affect the ability of a limited number of our customers to connect to our wireless network,” the AT&T spokesperson said.
“Keeping our customers connected is our highest priority, so we appreciate their patience as we work to resolve this issue,” the spokesperson said.
The software issue is affecting “some customers” but?is not nationwide, according to the spokesperson.
The spokesperson’s message came on an evening when at at least two government entities in Florida referred online to phone outages.
Tampa police on Tuesday evening announced a “reported outage with our non-emergency and district phone lines,” but said 911 was not affected. Seminole County’s government X account, meanwhile, referred to an “outage when calling 911,” and urged people to call a “non-emergency number … for emergencies until the issue is resolved.” It was not immediately clear whether these outages related to AT&T’s issues.
