Service Still Out for Some AT&T Customers in Southern Florida, 10 Days After Cable Cut

After a Jan. 5 accident in southern Florida, some of AT&T's buried cables were cut by another company, and wireline, Internet and video service to about 600 people was knocked out, said a company spokeswoman. Services for 911 were fine, she said. About 70 customers remained without service on Friday, but AT&T hopes to remedy that by early this week, she said. The damage to AT&T's equipment was extensive, and the repair team had to rebuild the infrastructure before it could start reestablishing connectivity, the spokeswoman said.
