For the past four days or so, I've been unable to reliably receive inbound calls on my Sonic landline. To Sonic's credit, sonicstatus.com has included pretty regular updates for this issue since 2022-03-04 in the post "Calls not completing to Sonic" at https://sonicstatus.com/2022/03/04/call ... -to-sonic/ (last update 2022-03-07 10am as of now).
Question is: does anyone know the cause? I ask because I am curious to estimate the likelihood of future such prolonged inconsistencies, in order to plan accordingly.
(I tried researching similar past issues by searching the history on sonicstatus.com, and found prior posts indicating previous short-term voice connectivity and DDOS issues, but cannot immediately find prior examples of such a long-duration voice problem--e.g., less than 90% reliable uptime over 30d.)
Basically, is an underlying carrier (such as AT&T) unable to quickly resolve a network issue (understaffed, etc.)? Or, are landlines under some form of DDOS/similar attack? Or, something else?
Thanks for any insights. I love Sonic. The cause of this uncharacteristic issue would just be great to understand slightly better, if possible.
