(UPDATE, 10:59 a.m.) Spectrum said in an email to KRTV that an issue on a third-party carrier’s network impacted service for Spectrum customers. Service was restored at approximately 9 a.m.



(1st REPORT, 8:07 a.m.) We have received several messages from people in and around Great Falls saying that their Spectrum internet service is not working.

We began receiving reports at about 6:30 a.m. on Wednesday.

The website DownDetector confirms that many people are reporting issues with internet connectivity this morning. Here are some of the most recent comments on the site:

  • Nicole: Down in Great Falls MT. There's a tech outside my place working on a pole, said it's out everywhere in Great Falls.

  • CJ: Just talked to Spectrum. It's affecting customers in MT, WY and CO. No estimated time of restoration.

At this point, there is no word on the cause of the outage, nor how long it might be before service is restored.

Spectrum said in a Twitter post: "We are aware of an issue affecting services for customers in Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado. Engineers and investigating and are working towards a resolution."
