Level 3 Internet outage today

If you hear about a Level 3 Internet outage today and haven’t heard this company mentioned before, then you might be wondering how problems involving the Level3 network could take down your access to Yahoo Mail, PSN, Xbox Live, Outlook, BT, Twitch, HBO Go, Craigslist, and other networks/services.

Level 3 Communications is based in America and is now operating under the name CenturyLink. It provides Internet service via their Tier 1 network to Internet carriers in Europe, Asia, and North America. This is why we have seen problems with a range of services in the UK, Germany, and United States that all user the Level3 network.

Level3-status

Leave your own status update below, or see those left by others that reveal major Internet outages due to Level 3 problems. You can access an outage map for this company at the official maps section of their website.

Well I got a messed up one, my tablet is on the same wifi as my pc, and both use chrome browser. (and I know its different os), my pc is down but im writing this on my tablet. And my tablet isn’t auto connecting. Started at 3 am. I’m in Alberta, Canada. Weirdest part is youtubes play setup loads but no vid and won’t show who im logged on as. Every other site I try just keeps trying to load, not even getting a timed out message. B. T. W. Im on shaw. So its my phone and cable too… not even slow on my tablet

There’s something really strange going on with me and I’ve been looking for answers and I ended up on this site. I need to talk to someone who is not close minded and thinks everything fits in the boxes we’ve all been trained to think in. I’m scared. It seems every phone I get has been very weird and I don’t get emails I’m supposed to and there seems to be an overlay for lack of a better word on website I know like some on is changing the internet and since millions of people get information they trust to be true on the internet thats very scary. I’m absolutely terrified by what is going on with me because I know how crazy I sound and but the truth is I need peoples help to figure it out and I don’t know who to turn to. So if there’s anyone else out there going through what I’ve noticed please reach out to me. I’m not some nut job something very wrong is going on.

  Internet is out globally, not just in the U.S. I’ve been watching the various sections of the global system go down in real time all night. CenturyLink is just one of many sections of the global internet infrastructure.
  - Blake
    
    Be advised, the internet is going to come back on then off again sometime later. It will continue to do this until the issue is resolved.

  Its good to question the narrative when we have so many examples of a false narrative being parroted almost universally in the past and even very recently. That being said, remain calm, because sometimes glitches, solar incidents, hacks, accidental damage to satellites, etc. can and do occasionally occur and it wont help you to lose your wits if something bad or nefarious is actually going on. Just because your paranoid does not mean that there isn’t a good reason to be paranoid. I am a researcher and go fairly far down rabbit holes to trace down data and facts and I run into two main problems. 1) There are secret society’s that work behind the scenes which rarely leaves documentation but there is enough data to show that wars, outbreaks, and other things that can be manipulated and it usually means that they have to compromise some people in positions of power who are not true believers to “the cause”. There are examples though of compromised people going rogue and bucking the controls on them and they usually end up dying as a result but sometimes they can prevent a war, etc… think JFK. 2) There is an unreasonable and vast amount of information being pushed everywhere that is either completely false or else has been seeded with mistruths in order to confuse or manipulate people and agendas and it makes it hard to sift for truth and documented facts… so, not all the crazy theory’s have any merit… but some do… be wise, stay calm, when you can try and get informed and always be careful of manipulation and false narrative’s out there that can lead you astray. Power will often neutralize opposition by presenting itself as ordinary and normal as opposed to dramatic or in any way draconian and conspiratorial. This leaves us unable to relate the banality of the methods of any conspiracy’s or doctrines to the rapacity of the ambitions of those who bring them about (often sociopaths). The truest conspiracy’s meet with the least opposition by design…

Here in Middle Tennessee Last night January 16… Unable to access Internet through Express VPN on any location in the United States or worldwide network. Noticed at 11:30 PM central standard time. Verizon phone with express VPN would not map or pull up Facebook or anything Internet related yet would send text messages and phone calls. iMac computer had absolutely no Internet connection. iPhone regained Internet connection after midnight. iMac had access this morning at approximately 9am. Seriously considering it was part of the blackouts do to the war.

How is that when every day I see news about it in youtube? The riot at the Capitol with Pres. Trumps supporters did.

Please, keep in mind that *President Trump has signed the Insurrection Act*. He has given orders to begin the storm that is upon us for some time now. He’s ready to expose Nancy Pelosi’s attempts to crucify him, now that her and a couple of other laptops, left in haste when the Capitol was stormed,,have come in the hands of American patriots entering the Capitol with that purpose, on Jan. 6th. In short, the going may go rough for a while. The same source presenting the info I’ve just shared above, gave warning of possible blackouts in the US. For those of you interested in the source I’ve checked, go to bitchute. London Real. Brian Rose. Or other news media that aren’t censored.
- tr1993r happy
  
  So it is Nancy Pelosi who committed the crime of inciting to sedition, insurrection and rebellion? And when did Congress pass the Insurrection Act?
- IDoKnowThis
  
  The internet blackout began yesterday, 2/14/21. I watched it go down around the globe all last night and so far today. Moscow, most of China, Europe, the Middle East, everywhere. We are definitely in an internet blackout. Thank goodness I have unlimited mobile data. What I have been witnessing is really scary.

1/11/2021 We haven’t had internet for at least 4 days now in Oregon south of Eugene. Talking to anyone live is impossible. Talking to them on Messenger like they ask… well let’s see, I’ve had a (I guess conversation) chat that is 2 days on going now. The rep answers me on the average of every 12 hours. Each time, she asks for information…. I give it, she doesn’t respond for 12-24 hours. Ridicules. This internet is the only way my family can keep in contact with our Great Gram during Covid. Totally unacceptable.

Brice Fleckenstein

They’ve had this same notice posted for over a week now – and ZERO sign of any improvement out of Level 3 since they started having major issues during the daytime (and SOME issues even in the wee hours of the morning) about 2 weeks ago.
I wish my local ISP would go with a different Tier 1 provider – or better yet, MORE THAN ONE so they can load-share or roll over when one of them pretty much DIES for weeks at a time.

I’m having the same intermittent connection problems with XFINITY this morning. I suppose it may really be the solar storm.
- Devon SeaMoor
  
  Well, now that you mention a storm, Gradivus, it’s actually possible that a storm is upon is.
  A different one. Apart from checking at NOAA’s site for solar activity, you’ll be able to find what I mean by a different storm by looking into bitchute or other news media uncensored.

How can our internet be affected by a tiny Levels 3 Communications CenturyLink?

Because Level 3 isn’t tiny. Level 3 is THE internet backbone. For the whole internet. Worldwide. If there is a problem at Level 3, the entire internet is effected. Read the article above again. Level 3 is a TIER 1 provider.

“Level 3 Communications is based in America and is now operating under the name CenturyLink. It provides Internet service via their Tier 1 network to Internet carriers in Europe, Asia, and North America. This is why we have seen problems with a range of services in the UK, Germany, and United States that all user the Level3 network.”

  I know! I called earlier yesterday and was told it was my lines! I think they were told not to give too much information! Right now I called and he said he sent a message to my lines and fixed it??

Southern NY. Internet speeds down to 1.3MB, from 70. Started last evening, still present today. Level 3’s statement sounds like a gloss.

Hard to imagine something like this happening without intent. Perhaps we should call Joe Biden so he can get his Antifa repair crew on the problem.

This is a problem because the internet is more important then what people think it is. It is an essential in this age of technology to have. You have information, communication, work, bills to pay, ect. It’s not just for gaming it’s for livelihood and connecting people easier and because most people are more tech-based people they will need this item the most.

And as far as internet goes, they SUCK!
They charge ridiculous rates offering fast service- and on rare occasion, it is fast. Internet goes out randomly, usually weekly, no reasons, no apologies, no discounts, just “reset your router” to keep you busy while they fix their problem.

I live in Kansas and my internet worked in the morning and then in the afternoon of 9 Jan things went haywire. I can run a Speed Test on some items and others it does not work at all. I have been pulling my hair out all afternoon trying to figure it out. Even when the speed test shows 40 Mbps DL pages will not load, or load slowly. Some sites come up fast but then trying to watch Amazon it buffers. In the morning all was fine.

  Centurylink has had fiber running in front of my property for 30 years. Yet they won’t let us access it and I can only sign up for 10 MBs.
  I’d say these things happen but you wont get them to change unless evryone on their service complains and asks them to modernize. I am on xfinity but their level 3 affects everyone. Complain to your provider complain to centurylink to get them to spend money on their infrastructure and endpoint connections.

Fort Myers – Punta Gorda FL – partial internet (says connected to internet but most websites cannot be reached).
William Lockridge

I use CenturyLink in North Benton Ohio. I had Armstrong before but they just couldn’t seem to field a team. After the 39th service call ( yes you read that right 39th service call) I finally kicked them the hell out of here. I was paying for 200 MB service and getting 7. I went to CenturyLink DSL and the most I could get was 60MB and it was the best and most solid service I ever had here. That was until today at 10 a.m. It is now 5:51 p.m. and we are still without internet service. I spent hours on my cell phone trying to find the contact number to report the outage but to no avail until I finally contacted some nice lady in the Philippines. It sure would be refreshing if they would just be honest and notify the local news that there is a problem so you wouldn’t have to burn up all your mobile data calling numbers that no one answers or speaking to people that don’t or care about what your problem is. It would appear that honesty is a rare commodity these days. I wouldn’t have been especially angry I understand that things break after all they’re just machines. the thing that makes me angry is they try to hide it from you and treat you like you’re stupid. and it’s just not a CenturyLink problem they all do it. Maybe if we all stopped paying the bill it might get their attention.

Does anyone have a listing of major (level 3) outages – for example when the SQL Slammer worm hit the email servers in 2003 – January 24 2003. I was hoping to do a data science project based on past level 3 internet outages. There was also a Nachi worm that year.
Maria Acosta

I posted earlier today on another page about this outage. I just found this page. I get only internet services through Spectrum. I’m in zip code 93543 (outside of Palmdale,CA and just north of Pasadena). Our internet here went out around 5 am last night. It came back around 4:30 pm, a few hours ago. We had no service between those hours. I called on two people that live near me, in different towns. They both told me their internet didn’t go out at all, no problems. They have the same Spectrum service, only internet, no cable or home phone services. It’s weird how our internet went out but not theirs. I did hear that others in surrounding towns lost their internet too (not the same towns these friends of mine live in), along with some people in the Pasadena area.

Green Bay, WI – We lost our Spectrum internet/cable/landline services starting on 4/11/18 and it returned early on 4/12/18. Very inconvenient for college student with online classes and homework/tests that can only be submitted through Blackboard online.

Spectrum said everyone’s service was dropped. Further research indicated the outage was on a national scale. Service may be back, bit it is super slow.
Jeff Gorski

Chicago IL Suburbs, tracert is erratic at best, over 10 timeouts or 700+ms response times after jump 9, with no identifiers on those jumps. My trace goes from my box, to the city’s location, to the il backbone, and then gets dumped on at 200:4860:0:1::1f32, and never becomes stable after that jump (jump 9). All internet services are basically rendered crippled. While I can periodically access things, I’m lucky if the stability lasts more than 2 consecutive seconds. This has been for half the day now.

  sounds like they are not telling us something, say, installing hardware on the network to help control, throttle, and prioritize the fast lanes they are going to push out next year. This entire thing is BS a coup by big companies is to change the net before the FCC ruling is in full effect. They did this on both “Days of Action”, both times the vote for net neutrality came up, they said it was this event here, and too many people on the network, which was found later to be complete BS, and in fact FCC helped the ISP’s bring the entire network down, while they then spammed the websites, Facebook pages,m etc with BOT posts supporting Net’s repeal. Pie got caught for that recently. But who knows at this point. They are doing massive fishy things in collusion with Microsoft & Apple to help throttle the net as well. This also includes every day at 12am/pm, 3am/pm, 6am/pm, 9am/pm right on the dot or very close to, the net automatically drops EVERYONE and then may or may not resume. It then may only give you like 5 mins tops of stable internet, then down it goes again, same thing daily. Thats a digital algorithm working within the hardware or software, or both. The more of this you got, the more control you got to throttle im sure. The network is also over 100 years old, same old outdated copper wires, and most towns never upgrade them until they are literally about to collapse. That system was not meant for this, and back then when people didn’t create companies to simply rip people off, they sort of cared a bit more then so things like “artificially and on purpose, throttling of the internet and other services” was not even a thought so the network won’t be able to handle it without some upgrades. doesn’t surprise me its collapsing under the twisted 180 that comcrap is today.

Is this what is behind the outage at Sling TV since yesterday morning?

Verizon and US Cellular are out in southeast Tennessee today, Jan 11, 2018. It is interesting to watch people’s behaviors when they are not able to use their devices for more than a Rolodex, calculator, or clock.

Our internet providers make the US look like a 3rd World Country. SAD.
- Dolmance
  
  Most 3rd World Countries have faster Internet than the US. All of Europe, most of Latin American (including Mexico) and Asia are faster and more reliable. We have the slowest and most unreliable Internet of the developed world, and the Republicans have made it so cities cannot compete by law.
  
  Now that Trump has repealed Net Neutrality, it’s only going to get worse.

Here in the Philippines Google and facebook were working (I saw this page in my google search for internet issues, but could not open it until today) but pretty much everything else was down. Couldn’t reach any application or services of Office 365 and Azure, many sites were unreachable, some could get to their own pages, but services simply froze …
Josh Roza

So glad 2 super large telcos just merged into 1. Way to go commerce department.
- NgTurbo
  
  Not a fan of the new CenturyLink merge then Josh?
  - Josh Roza
    
    I work with level 3 and CenturyLink and have for years, in fact was on a conference call today with several folks. I think all of the telcos leveling up has resulted in less stability and higher costs. The problem is that it is such a capital and regulation heavy segment that competition isn’t likely to happen from upstarts.
    
    I could bore you with details, but I won’t. I also wasn’t a fan of the TW acquisition by LVLT and I opposed the acquisition of TimeWarner by Comcast (funny enough, TW and TimeWarner were broken up to stop a conglomerate that would control too much of the internet…) meanwhile LvLt has trouble today and over 1/3 of the entire internet stops working. The commerce department over the past 25 or so years has become a simple rubber stamp, rather than a checks and balances, which was its function after the Teapot Dome scandal. oh well.
NgTurbo

Level 3 or CenturyLink have now said that the November 6, 2017 outage was due to a ‘configuration’ issue on Twitter. According to the company, all should be restored now but is Comcast still down for you?
Daniel.F

comcast still down for me.. so unreliable.

It has been a bad day for Level 3 customers today. Service disrupted for hours, bringing down access to Comcast amongst others. Anyone else still having problems right now?

Thanks for pointing that out! Still doesn’t explain why we’re getting spotty service, but at least I know this one is the proverbial “red herring”.
thisisfutile

Genius! This article was written 2+ years ago and the only way I know that is to scroll through all the comments. They don’t date their “article” (yes, the quotes are on purpose, I’m using that term loosely) and they make it sound like it’s here and now. What a great way to get your website to stay at the top of search chains and “relevant” (again, I know I used quotes). There’s even a blurb in the middle that uses TODAY’S DATE, making it almost sound like this is happening TODAY. Shame on you P-R.net … shame.

Site still down. Who are these Level3 people anyway? Their license should be revoked.
Steve Rothkopf

One of our sites has been unreachable all day. This all goes to prove that the internet isn’t the robust, self-healing miracle it’s supposed to be — one bit of it falls over, and a major chunk of is suddenly out of business. Level 3 should wind itself it and go home.
Leon Schlossberg

A serious problem with Internet timeouts in the Spectrum service areas at Fayetteville, NC appeared to have been fixed during late afternoon on Saturday, August 19, but today (August 20) between 2 – 3 p.m., the Internet service went into meltdown again and most sites we try to access are timing out. This is the worst Internet slowdown I’ve seen in the past five years. Funny that the news media is ignoring this.
Roger Faucher

Perhaps this can explain why Level 3 is showing up more often in the press due to outages: “On October 31, 2016, CenturyLink announced its intent to acquire Level 3 in a deal valued at around $25 billion.”

tell me about it. Though – as I’m in Canada – it’s good to know we’re not at all attached to this infrastructure, though i”m curious why my data-center provider is claiming it’s ‘their jupiter switches’ when it simply isn’t.

You know, as an IT professional it is always odd when other IT professionals quote the marketing status quo rather than simply saying, ‘yeah. we’re on xyz backbone and they screwed up, and this is what the deal is’ instead of making up some kind of excuse.

Boise Idaho and surrounding area seem affected. Others in the coffee shop tell me their WiFi is very slow also. Hope this get fixed soon.

This may very well explain why my DSL connection was down from Monday night up to sometime this morning. Also may explain why my wifes and my AT&T powered phones was on EDGE, and the kids T-Mobile powered phones had no service. Seems funny they all died the same time . . .

  That’s a bummer for Level 3 customers! Grande Communications proudly serves the following communities: Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, San Marcos, Waco, Greater Temple, Corpus Christi, Midland and Odessa. Grande owns and operates an extensive network with over 5,000 miles of fiber in Texas. I can help your business make a switch 🙂 [email protected]
  - Zach B
    
    I don’t think you understand the effect Level3 has on your employer. I would be amazed if your employer didn’t tunnel across Level3 somewhere in Texas. Also, it will do no good to switch to your employer for Voice-over-IP services unless you are providing their internet other wise their traffic will probably traverse a Level3 node to get to you. It would also only be a benefit if you provided their internet if you were actually a facilities based CLEC in that area or an ILEC. Otherwise those lines are maintained by someone else and they most likely use Level3. But let’s say that’s all true. What happens when they call someone that isn’t on your service in Texas or anywhere else? You may not know this but if your employer doesn’t have interconnect agreement with with every carrier then more than likely that call will be carried by Level3. Also, most interconnects for other providers are provided via Level3. The point is that you are trying to be an opportunistic sleeze and capitalize on someone’s misfortune. This is not the time or the place and you clearly don’t understand the global communications grid well enough to open your mouth. I don’t work for Level3 and I don’t particularly have any love for them. But I despise people whole push services and products by misrepresenting them and being dishonest about the capabilities.
    - Randy L
      
      Zach,
      
      Just read your reply and could agree more! My sentiments exactly
  - Randy L
    
    While I admire your drive in pursuing new customers, it is very risky highlighting a network outage on a competitor. I’m being generous by putting Grande/Level 3 on “level playing fields” (no pun int need). An outage can/will his any network at any time. Level 3s outage a few days ago can be Grande’s outage tomorrow. I’ve had Grande service personally and experienced many “service glitches” that impacted my phone service.
    
    Proceed with caution!

  Your traceroute confirms that GoDaddy lied to you. Your trace shows that it went through the Level 3 network. If it goes all the way through their network and reaches someone else’s network, how can it be Level 3?

Central Phoenix – Having difficulty getting to most website. Changed my DNS to Google working fine.

The official Level3 Twitter states they are experiencing “service disruptions” and that the problems are only affecting customers in North America. It looks like service is slowly coming back right now.
Max

Houston, Texas is having issues as of 2.45PM (CST) Service seem to have returned to normal around 3PM Waiting for speak to a Level 3 representative to see what happened.

Looking at tweets by location this is certainly hitting the United States more today, Aug 27 2015. Most Level3 outage maps point to areas in san diego, Concord, Dayton Ohio and still down Albuquerque.
Nath

San Diego has intermittent issues.
Editor

Another major outage today across USA, portions of the internet are down in Greensboro as well.
Rob

Nothing like a large internet outage to make you happy when you want internet access in the early hours, thanks @level3 for the outage. Think things are improving now though, so I missed most of the downtime.
Matt

So, it looks like the whole internet went on the blink on June 12, as it was to do with a level3 outage causing problems in Germany, UK, and many parts of NA.
Dan

The Level3 major UK outage stopped me playing GTA 5, also access to Yahoo Mail.
Bob

Major level3 outage this morning that hit other CDNs in UK and USA.
