For liabilities reasons, specifics are likely not in the cards. As most services ride over common service networks, its quite possible that a network substrate failure can have a number of upstream service impacts. The point here is that the CEO is directly addressing the customer base, which is needed here. regards, Victor K On Mon, Jul 11, 2022 at 10:11 AM Shane Ronan <sh...@ronan-online.com<mailto:sh...@ronan-online.com>> wrote: What in depth analysis have you seen? Seems to me, this was a failure in a known maintenance activity, and they simply disconnected the devices under maintenance from the network.

A Message from Rogers President and CEO Dear Valued Customer, As you know, we experienced a service outage across the Rogers, Fido, Chatr and Cityfone wireless networks on Friday. I am reaching out to share that our services have been restored, and our networks and systems are close to fully operational. Our technical teams are continuing to monitor for any remaining intermittent issues. I also want to outline an action plan we are putting in place to address what happened. I want to share what we know about what happened on Friday. We now believe we’ve narrowed the cause to a network system failure following a maintenance update in our core network, which caused some of our routers to malfunction. We disconnected the specific equipment and redirected traffic, which allowed our network and services to come back online over time as we managed traffic volumes returning to normal levels.

This is par for the course. These people chose to deal with Rogers despite knowing the consequences. It is like if you bought a Rogers Snowblower and it did not work. That would mean that people who bought the Rogers Snowblower will not be using it to get rid of the snow that is preventing them from leaving their house. Mutatis mutandis when Rogers is down things that are Rogers dependent will not work. Some people are so retarded it is astonishing! -- (CAUTION) You are advised that if you attack my person or property, you will be put down in accordance with the provisions of section 34 & 35 of the Criminal Code respectively.
