Our measurement of the outage was 3pm to 5:47pm US EDT, 2h 47m outage.
19:00 to 21:47 UTC
We haven't completely determined whether or not this was a full or partial
outage, as we still saw some calls come in, but termination had issues as
did SMS delivery for a portion of the outage period.
Latest BW Update
Update - Bandwidth continues to see portal and network improvements. At
this time, messaging traffic is processing as expected. We continue to
work to resolve other impacted services.
