Gary, what speculation are you referring to with this post?

Gary, I'm not speculating. I'm telling you we are to be one of AT&T's first customers on their new Ascend/Cascade switches. They are currently supporting us with Globeviews & Vectors, but they will be putting our link on to the CBX500 in the near future. And we have no outage or problem so far. Thank goodness we use Sprint for our frame relay... Bucky89

Gary is right in this respect: Ianna said emphatically that they did not know what the source of the problem was. He said it was "either a software problem, a hardware problem, or a combination of both." ATT does not know what caused the original problem. They do know that once the problem started, it moved to "over 100" of their 145 nodes.
