We've been unable to get on the internet for four hours. Hauled the laptop to the library.

Earthlink told us they have NO IDEA what is going on, but it's down everywhere that it is connected by Verizon
I wonder if the Robocalling is jamming up Verizon this much.

Anyone know what's going on?... Library is closing soon.

2. How are you receiving it, dialup? Through Verizon?

Looks like it's nationwide on Verizon hookups.
Maybe it's the robocalls but it might be the fact the company is slowly failing (made a new low on the market today)

but I did get a robocall from Al Franken earlier - maybe he did it.
