Local AT&T outage resolved
An AT&T outage that affected some area customers as well as Temple’s 911 system has been resolved, Temple Fire & Rescue spokesman Thomas Pechal said just before 1 p.m. Tuesday.
The 911 issue was resolved Tuesday morning, an AT&T spokesman said, and the rest of the problems were corrected by mid-afternoon Tuesday.
"Service has been restored for customers in Belton and parts of Temple," the spokesman said in a brief update Tuesday afternoon.
AT&T earlier confirmed the problem, but provided no further details, including the number of customers affected.
“We are aware that a fiber cut caused by a third party is affecting services for some customers in Belton and parts of Temple. Our technicians are onsite working to repair the cable as quickly as possible,” an AT&T spokesman said in a brief statement Tuesday morning.
