Inland Cellular has restored service for nearly all customers following an outage due to a software maintenance issue.
The glitch, which occurred during a software maintenance procedure in the early morning hours of Thursday, caused the company’s nearly 40,000 customers to lose the ability to make or receive phone calls and texts.
Customers with older phones could largely call and text as they did before the outage but it took some time before they could reach all locations and all non-Inland Cellular networks.
Newer phones took longer to regain service because the system reverted to an older system when the outage began. (Lewiston Tribune)
