Cellular customers were experiencing outage problems across the country early Thursday morning, and shortly following noon most of those affected in the Mid-South had restored service.
According to Downdetector.com, a service outage tracking website, AT&T was impacted the most. The issue affected some customers' mobile phone connections.
Tennessee's 911 Board advised by 12:20 p.m. that AT&T had communicated to them that most of the country was restored with "pockets of devices still being re-registered on the network."
Users were advised that it could be necessary to power cycle their devices to regain full service.
The outage tracking site said most reported problems have come from major cities, including Atlanta, Houston, Chicago, New York and Los Angeles.
