A power outage at a facility operated by our Internet provider caused a network outage and consequently GridExperience experienced a downtime event.
This situation was resolved and the grid was brought back online at approximately 10:00 PM EST.
The event duration was approximately 3 hours.
We take our network reliability and performance very seriously and are doing everything in our power to prevent issues. Unfortunately, we have no control over our upstream providers and are in contact with their technicians and our Internet service account manager to prevent and/or minimize any further interruptions in the future.
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
