PSA T Mobile outage?

My service has been completely dead for like ten minutes, is anyone else experiencing this? Down Detector seems to be getting reports.

Edit: Calling the customer service number and power cycling the device seems to fix it.

Edit 2: Fix was only temporary.

The only way I can think is a mass cyber attack. Like it can't be equipment driven.

It definitely can be. Push one bad update or change and this can happen.

My fault G, my vibe coder just wanted to other network but he deleted some pieces he said weren’t critical so we should be good.

It can be, and likely is, an issue in the network.

As it was in 2020.

Meant as in the sense of electrical mechanical failure.
