Re: AT&T Problems yesterday (and continuing today...)

Chuck,
        We have an AT&T Frame Relay WAN.  And yes, we also took a hit
yesterday.  I probably had over 30 calls between last night and this
morning with connectivity issues from my remote users.  I'm hoping this
problem gets resolved by AT&T as soon as possible.  The influx of
support calls is making me nuts!  But then again I wasn't all there to
begin with.
