Reply to post: Horsefeathers -- was it a DDOS or a failed upgrade?

BT blames 'faulty router' for mega outage. Did they try turning it off and on again?

Horsefeathers -- was it a DDOS or a failed upgrade?

To air is human but to really fuck things up is a oft overused phrase.

You don't take down a couple hundred thousand users without either being hit by a DDOS or an upgrade gone wrong. No one could be so cheap as to have a SPOF or could they?

Perhaps, BT couldn't get through to the scummy helpLESS lines in OpenReach to get help? That'd be fitting karma!
