An internet outage menaced Verizon users from Washington, D.C., to New York City on Tuesday, throwing a wrench into the middle of the day for workers and students stuck at home during the pandemic.
By evening, Verizon said the issue had been fixed, but the cause of the widespread crash remained unclear.
“An internet issue impacting the quality of our Fios service throughout the Northeast has been resolved, and network performance and service levels are returning to normal,” Chris Serico, a Verizon spokesperson, said in an email to the Daily News.
