Giant blackout at Orange: total blackout for operator subscribers in Aude and Pyrénées-Orienta – The Independent

Bad surprise since this morning for many subscriber households of the Orange operator. France is hit by a giant operator outage which impacts fixed and mobile internet networks, as well as telephone calls. It would seem that the Occitanie region is particularly affected. Since this morning, posts from customers dissatisfied with Orange have been flooding the social network Twitter “My network has been buggy for 1 hour. No more tv, no internet. The modem grinds and flashes in white. No more than 4 g either. Have you a major network outage? wonders a user while another notes: “Total blackout of your services this morning: Fiber connection and Telephone network”. @Orange_France hello to you.

The Orange operator itself communicated on its website, explaining that an “incident affects the coverage of the mobile network”, without the nature of the giant failure being revealed. On the Zone ADSL site, which specializes in the monitoring of internet networks, there is a peak in reports of failures among customers of the operator Orange this Sunday morning. On the map, we see that the homes of Carcasonne, Narbonne and Perpigan are particularly affected.
