WiFi and cable tv down resort wide 12/10

[Jimmy Thick]

Just got back to my resort, turn on the tv and get this:

A call to maintenance and I was told cable and WiFi are down resort wide and they have no idea when it will be fixed.

Back to Epcot I guess.

Somewhere a backhoe operator is cursing because the bucket is tangled up in yellow cable thats resistant to wire cutters....

Odd. We have WiFi and the TV is working just fine in Mizner’s at the Grand.

Maybe Comcast is displaying what net neutrality is all about.....

Can we please clarify that this is at a single resort because the wording of the oringal Post is quite unclear. To have an outage affecting the entire property would require multiple redundancy failures. Even TDO wouldn’t allow a single point failure design for their critical information systems.

We have literally been using guest WiFi all day with no issues. On it right now.

Lol.. You'd think so, yet dining or MDE or FP+ or park admissions have been down for hours on days in the past with no such redundancy, resort reservations too...

Boy, I remember when you had to go and pay for using the internet over there in the hotels at Disney with the lan line for $10. Imagine what it would have been like if they continue that in this day and age.

I remember when there was no internet at all in the reso.... ok anywhere at all. If you wanted to use the phone you had to do it before you left the room. (Did the Magic Kingdom and Epcot have payphones and were they anywhere but right at the main gate?)

I do recall in 2003 that I recall seeing pay phones outside of mouse gears innoventions and then some strewn upon here and there throughout future world.

WiFi and cable tv all functioning properly as of 4:40 am.

Information from a maintenance worker is only slightly more accurate than a bus driver.

The pass through from Adventureland to Frontierland had a payphone as late as 2013

Of all the things that needed to be reported on, it's the wifi being down at a theme park.

Yep... mostly by the restrooms.

Of course because we all need to see, breathe and live someone else's living moment to what they ate, shopped and meme'd throughout WDW...
