Nextel Data Services Down Nationwide! Read before Posting

OK, Nextel's data services are down nationwide. Simple as that. Blackberry'scan still send/receive emails, but as far as NOL, that's down. This is not affecting everbpody, but is affecting a lot of people.

Please, no more threads about your internet not working.

When I got off the phone with Data Solutions Support, they said there was still no ETA on a fix, but it is being worked on, and they are aware of the problem.

That you for telling us this. I just got a replacement BB7520. The last one got fried by the car charger. Neither to say I want and bought a new one. Anyway, I was trying to reload web viewer and hot viewer and could not figure out what was going on. Thanks for the update.

I called my Corporate Rep before checking here. He knew nothing about any outages on the system.

WTF - You can find out more information from here then you can from Nextel.

Just called wireless web support and was told that as of 7:43PM (Eastern) service was back.

He told me to power cycle my phone and sure enough it worked

It was definetly down for a good part of the day not sure if it still is though. I was at Nextel trying to upgrade one of the phones on my account to an 860, and even FDT (software every NRS uses to activate, check account info, etc.) was down. I had to wait for an hour at the Nextel store before it came back online.

Nextel was fallin apart today. I thought the world was coming to an end as we know it.
