4G LTE outage??

I am in Detroit MI and I am having no 4G connectivity today at work where 4G is available and normally works. I was not getting any connectivity until a little while ago but now I have 3G. Is anyone else experiencing a network outage for 4G today? Phone = Droid Bionic. Thanks!

I'm in Phoenix, AZ and I've been really spotty all morning on my Galaxy Nexus.

Bionic_3

I am in northern Virginia and I have had no 4G LTE service this morning, and usually have it at home, on the drive to work and while at work. Today nothing. Even 3G seems to drop every now and then. Phone is a Bionic

Finally back up after being up and down all morning in Ellwood City PA, 45min North of Pgh.

Had 4g outside of Chicago at 6a, then noticed no data and poor cell signal at 8a. Switched to wifi. Now, I finally have 3g and a better cell signal. It appears to be down nationwide.

Using Droid Bionic

I have a Droid Bionic and I haven't had 4G or 3G service for the last two hours. And I'm in a good 4G service area in Phoenix.

I have a bionic & my 4G has been out all day, but I did find that switching to cdma only will give you a good 3G connection...

i have Samsung Stratosphere for about a week and i just lost 4G and G3 yes! even x1 connection this morning . i did those methods taking battery and sim card out and leave them for couple minutes... after i turn on the phone i see 4G icon with 5 bar on the screen and it stays there for like 30 seconds and 4G icon disappears and i can't use data connection. but i still can call and text.

they better fix this problem now!!!! im not going to pay $30 a month for the service that i can't access.

Thanks for the link

Still no announcement from VZW on the outage.

philly, PA 4G is still down. have to use 3G connection but it keeps go off and on.

I noticed 4G up time has incresed to 1 minute and it goes off in last 2 second when green arrow appear.

brad311

Too bad 4g is still down in Chicago on my Bionic (3g working fine), but @vzwnews said over 3 hours ago, "After a brief issue this morning, 4G LTE service is fully restored." I'm okay if new technology having occasional issues, but please get your facts straight before stating the issue is resolved. Grrrrrrrrrr.

I even tried to power-off and remove battery (has helped me to re-authenticate to LTE in the past), but still only received data over 3g...

Very new user on MiFi 4510L 4G LTE in Mpls MN and not impressed.

I have great signal and see 3 Mbps up and 8 Mbps down. MAX Never over 3 down.

Call to tech support says it is what it is. If you do not like it send it back. (not the exact words but how I heard it)

If I believe the lights and the tech this is 4G?

Seeing the outage chatter has me wondering am I hitting it on a bad day?

@Antivzw did you trying geting in touch with Wireless Loyalty Department There MIDI Tin's Off Of Cellular Tower Radio Signals There Could Have Been Some Towers Down Call The Customer service And Make Them Check the cell towers for outages

unknown

@Antivzw If They Don't Fix The Tower's make them credit your bill for lack of Lte

new_chuck

I only hit the 800 number. Forgive my typo as my frustration is high right now. 3 max on the down, 8 on the up. I wish 8 on the down. I will try anything but the tech seemed sure of himself.

unknown

@Antivzw. Tip one don't call from your mobile tip 2 the tech people and customer Service rarely care you have to get the right person on the phone you may have to file a complaint they don't care about the customer just that $$$ Try a simple complaint to the FCC tell them your a customer of Verizon and there's an outage on the lte. Towers and they refuse. To send a tech to check the towers

Wildman

I just talked to CS and they reported that the 4G data has went down in a number of areas and someone is working to get the service restore ASAP.

At the moment I am without any data on my device so having your connection speed is better than some..

Ok, now I added this to favorites so I can check on 4G LTE availability. I was pulling my hair out today on the phone with router tech support (cradlepoint) and trying to figure out why my 4G modem no longer connected. Since my system is only a few weeks old I assumed I had to tweak or fix some configuration that was not handling disconnect / reconnect properly. Now I know to also question the network service itself as well as my own equipment. So it is back up in Central MA after being out earlier today (Feb 22).

unknown

@Antivzw. E Everything Verizon uses runs off there towers hopefully they will have A truck out there but I'd still keep track of data usage and before you pay your bill have an accounting Agent check the charges on your bill later.

I forgot to mention I was also experiencing 3G connect issues throughout the day (yesterday) as well. I gave up at work and simply connected to the WiFi network (always faster anyway). As I read more about the service disruption it appears quite a large number of people also experienced 3G problems as well as 4G unavailability earlier in the day.

John_Getzke

LTE was working in Dallas as of yesterday evening. 3G never skipped a beat. It seems that reports have died down on the forums as well.

I have always had better speeds with my 4G than my wifi connections. I got my connection back early this morning and everything so far has been back to normal.

About 2 hours ago, my Samsung went out. It was fine all day. Not happy! Hopefully this gets resolved soon.

4G down in Chicago along with 3G.....I have 1x that's it. Went down around 7:10 c.s.t. No reliability at all on this network.

JDRacerDad

4G out in Layhill/Silver Spring, Maryland all day today.

In and out on 3G, even 1x disappears.

Q2012

Same here is Arlington, VA.

I am under to get any network connectivity via my mobile device.

ElevenBravo

Annandale, VA. Been mostly out since about 1030.

Temple Hills, MD. Service has been out for me since last night. No 4G, 3G, 1X, or anything. I'm currently doing a factory reset to correct a problem with my phone but because it can't connect, I'm stuck waiting for activation. Verizon, if your service is down, you need to let your customers know. Put a notice on your forums or website or something.

I've been panicking for the past few hours. After visiting my local Verizon shop, I only then learned that the network was down.

ElevenBravo

Don't bother. Just confirmed network outage in NE, and Midwest. Supposed to be resolved by 1700 today. 9March2013

JDRacerDad

We are back up in the Layhill/Silver Spring area, hope it stays that way.

ustressed

We are having problems in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia too with 4G access.

varonec

I'm glad its not just me - in Chesapeake/Hickory pix messaging hasn't worked all day,,,,,

voh88

Any word yet? Its around 7 and my service is still down.

ElevenBravo

Annandale, VA - Mine came back and has been steady since about 1645EST.

TechSupportMachine

These possible outages are not posted online. I recommend calling tech support (800-922-0204 option 3) and asking them to check alerts and tickets in your zip code. Keep in mind, unless multiple people in your area are reporting the exact same issue, it is most likely related to something else. If it is a network-related issue, this advice should get you fixed quickly.
