Is anybody having cellular issues? My phone is going in SOS mode. Data is super intermittent & keeps going out. AT&T in Prairieville/Old Perkins area.
AT&T is known for shitting the bed early.
A simple power outage and they are toast in some areas.
AT&T can be cheap at times. Instead of having generators at tower sites they have cabinets of batteries that power the sites for a day or so. The thought is that they can deploy generators after the storm but after a hurricane event when hours turn into days, those portable generators do not get there fast enough. Or as in this case a bad battery pack could knock off a cell site offline.

tl:dr.
I’ll summarize: AT&T sucks. At everything it touches.
