Network Update

September 4, 2020 9:45 a.m. CST

Our wireless network in Louisiana is operating normally following Hurricane Laura and we are working to address a very limited number of wireline customers who were affected by storm damage and power outages. Although our network is performing well, we continue our work to maintain generator refueling schedules, rebuild destroyed towers, and perform general maintenance and cleanup. Our Network Disaster Recovery team will be staying in the area for the near future to continue to provide temporary service at locations with severe damage, until long term solutions can be implemented.

As You and Your Family Prepare for Hurricane Laura, Keep These Tips in Mind

August 26, 2020 9:15 a.m. CST

 
  • Keep your mobile phone battery charged. In case of a power outage, have other ways to charge your phone like an extra battery, car charger or device-charging accessory.
  • Keep your mobile devices dry. The biggest threat to your device during a hurricane is water.  Keep it safe from the elements by storing it in a baggie or some other type of protective covering.
  • Additional connection options. If necessary, try Wi-Fi calling for calling and texting. By connecting to Wi-Fi, you can call, text, and receive Visual Voicemails as you normally would. For more information on how to set up Wi-Fi calling check out http://att.com/wificall. 
  • Have a family communications plan. Choose someone out of the area as a central contact. Make sure all family members know who to contact if they get separated.
  • Program all of your emergency contact numbers and e-mail addresses into your mobile phone. Numbers should include the police department, fire station and hospital, as well as your family members.
  • Track the storm and access weather information on your mobile device. Many homes lose power during severe weather. You can stay up to speed as a DIRECTV customer, by streaming local weather channels using the DIRECTV application on your smartphone. Track the weather with other Weather applications too.
  • Camera phones provide assistance. Use your phone to take, store, and send photos and video clips of damage to your insurance company.
  • Text messaging. During an emergency situation, text messages may go through more quickly than voice calls because they require fewer network resources.

AT&T Networks Prepare for Hurricane Laura

August 25, 2020 at 6:15 p.m. CST

 

We are closely monitoring and preparing for Hurricane Laura expected to impact Texas, Louisiana and other Gulf states. We have an arsenal of disaster response equipment and personnel on standby. Our preparation includes:

  • Topping off fuel generators.
  • Testing high-capacity back-up batteries at cell sites.
  • Protecting physical facilities against flooding.
  • Staging other emergency response and network recovery equipment in strategic locations for quick deployment following the storm.
  • Staging dedicated FirstNet deployable network assets for use by public safety agencies on FirstNet to request as needed.

As we have in the past, we have installed more generators at critical cell towers and switching facilities and move electronics essential to network operations above expected flood levels. Additionally, our Network Disaster Recovery (NDR) team is on standby and prepared to deploy assets if needed.

"Customers rely on us, especially during major storms," said Caleb Deerinwater, AT&T South Texas Vice President/general manager. "That's why we practice readiness drills and simulations throughout the year. And we do all we can to have our networks prepared when severe weather strikes. We've worked for the past few days to position equipment and crews and are ready to respond if needed. We're also closely linked with public officials in their storm response efforts."

The AT&T Network Disaster Recovery (NDR) program is one of the industry's largest and most advanced disaster response programs. Our fleet includes hundreds of technology recovery and support trailers that can be quickly deployed to support customers and first responders.

Response equipment readied in the wake of an event includes:

  • Mobile cell sites and mobile command centers like Cell on Wheels (COWs) and Cell on Light Trucks (COLTs)
  • Emergency communications vehicles (ECVs)
  • Flying Cell on Wings (Flying COWs)
  • Drones
  • A self-sufficient base camp: This is complete with sleeping tents, bathrooms, kitchen, laundry facilities, an on-site nurse and meals ready to eat (MREs).
  • Hazmat equipment and supplies
  • Technology and support trailers to provide infrastructure support and mobile heating ventilation and air conditioning
  • Internal and external resources for initial assessment and recovery efforts

Just as we prepare, we encourage residents to do the same. Additional information and tips for disaster preparedness can be found at https://about.att.com/pages/disaster_recovery.
