Given the outage was so bad it was disrupting select E911 services
nationwide for something like 24+ hours, it's great to see such an in
depth analysis and plan of action to prevent such things in the future.

A Message from Rogers President and CEO
Dear Valued Customer,
As you know, we experienced a service outage across the Rogers, Fido,
Chatr and Cityfone wireless networks on Friday.
I am reaching out to share that our services have been restored, and
our networks and systems are close to fully operational. Our technical
teams are continuing to monitor for any remaining intermittent issues.
I also want to outline an action plan we are putting in place to
address what happened.
I want to share what we know about what happened on Friday. We now
believe *we’ve narrowed the cause to a network system failure
following a maintenance update in our core network, which caused some
of our routers to malfunction. We disconnected the specific equipment
and redirected traffic,*which allowed our network and services to come
back online over time as we managed traffic volumes returning to
normal levels.

This is par for the course. These people chose to deal
with Rogers despite knowing the consequences. It is like
if you bought a Rogers Snowblower and it did not work.
That would mean that people who bought the Rogers
Snowblower will not be using it to get rid of the snow
that is preventing them from leaving their house.
Mutatis mutandis when Rogers is down things that are
Rogers dependent will not work.
Some people are so retarded it is astonishing!
