Outage
There had been an outage in my area supposedly according to my app.... it’s been out for more than 24 hours now and I haven’t seen any workers in the area trying to fix it. At this point I’m extremely frustrated and don’t know what to do. I’ve been using my hotspot to get on my computer to do school work but that’s about all I can do.

Since you have been using your hotspot, I presume you are talking about your home internet service being out, not your cellular service. So, moved your post to the Internet forum. The cause for your outage could be miles away so you won’t necessarily see anyone working on it. Unfortunately, there isn’t anything you can do. As long as they know your service is out, all you can do is wait until it is restored. The last time my service was out was due to a cable cut a mile up the road. It took several days to restore service.
