It’s hard to find a connection for some folks this morning as Frontier Internet, Verizon and Plumas-Sierra Telecommunications are all reporting outages here in northeastern California.

The outages have affected businesses throughout Susanville since about 7:30 Friday night, limiting services such as Square payments and Credit Card processing in stores and at gas pumps.
As of 9:45 Saturday morning Plumas Sierra Telecommunication’s Member and Energy Services Manager Emily Compton said that PST’s crews were able to determine that the PST fiber network is experiencing significant equipment issues.
She did not say if the PST outage is related to Frontier or Verizon’s.
“Staff and crews are engaged and working to resolve these issues as quickly as possible, but we still do not have an estimated time of restoration. Thank you again for your patience.”
According to Verizon’s outage map, customers in the Alturas and Likely areas are without service.
