Raleigh, N.C. — AT&T Wireless customers in the Triangle area experienced trouble with the network’s high-speed data services on Monday morning.

An AT&T spokesperson in Charlotte said “intermittent” outages had taken place.

Service was restored around 11 a.m.

"Due to an equipment issue, some AT&T customers in the Raleigh area may have experienced issues with their 3G data service earlier this morning," AT&T's Amy Bristle said. "AT&T technicians have resolved the issue, and all service should be running normally. We apologize for any inconvenience to our customers."

A WRAL viewer had contacted WRAL.com to report “No 3G service for me today.”

3G is a reference to third-generation service, which offers higher upload and download services that older networks. 3G also better supports multi-media services such as access to the Web, photos and images as well as video

The problem is not resolved, it's been a week with no service for me, I'm not on the 3G network, the Edge network is what is available in my area and I'm beginning to think that the 3G upgrades are interferring with their Edge network. I'm very frustrated and I want answers. I've spoke with AT&T reps numerous times. Not only do I want credit for the week of no service, I think they are going to have to let me out of my contract so I can obtain service through a different carrier. I've been with AT&T for 4 years with no problems until now. Any ideas on how I can get some kind of results? How long is this going to go on?

Speaking of Android phones, I just saw a new site for that today. They popped up quick. http://www.droid-forum.com

UNC 81 - You're right, one of the main selling points is the App store. After using the iPhone though, you start to appreciate that it doesn't ever crash or freeze. It's really a trade off. It doesn't multi-task with everything out there, but its also very stable, unlike Blackberrys I've owned. It just works better. Maybe when Verizon has an iPhone I'll give them a try again, but not with a $350 early termination fee, no thanks.

The work you speak of is if you dont change the root password of the Iphone which is very easy to do with a mobile terminal downloaded from Cydia. All phones are vunerbale to hackers as was proven at the blackhat conference this year especially when its an open source platform such as your beloved Droid. Do a little research before you comment.
