How to fix AT&T not working
AT&T is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach att.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Toggle Airplane Mode for AT&T
Open Control Center on iPhone or the quick settings shade on Android and turn Airplane Mode on, wait a few seconds, then turn it off. That step is quick. If the phone still shows No Service or SOS, restart it before changing anything deeper.
Check the AT&T Line
On iPhone, go to Settings > Cellular and confirm the AT&T line is on and set for cellular data. Android paths vary, but Settings > Network & internet > SIMs on Pixel lets you check the SIM; after that, move near a window and watch the signal bars.
Reset AT&T Network Settings
This clears saved Wi-Fi networks and Bluetooth pairings; use it after you confirm the AT&T line is enabled. On iPhone, open Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings. On Samsung phones, open Settings > General management > Reset > Reset network settings.
Open AT&T Help Centre
Sign in to the AT&T help centre at https://www.att.com/support/ and review your line status and any account prompts. If another device on the same account works, the handset or SIM is the likely problem; if none work, ask support to check the line and local service.
While AT&T is down: what to use instead
- Wi-Fi calling Switch on Wi-Fi calling in your phone settings when you have working internet, because calls and texts can then use that connection instead of the mobile network.
- WhatsApp Use WhatsApp over Wi-Fi to send messages or make calls when the mobile network will not carry them.
- Landline or second phone Keep a landline or a phone on another carrier handy so you can reach people if the mobile service or app will not connect.
- Help centre Open the help centre in a browser to reach support pages and account tools when the app will not load.

Problems at the same time as AT&T
Since 27 October, all 10 of AT&T's spikes in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.
When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

What happens when AT&T goes down
AT&T is a telecom provider whose wireless and home internet services carry calls and data for households and businesses, so an outage interrupts those connections. The status at the top counts user reports in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours; this site does not ping or monitor the network itself.
A wireless outage usually hits voice and data first: your phone drops to SOS or No Service, and calls fail. Mobile data can stall with full bars. Home internet outages look different: the gateway loses its broadband light, and Wi-Fi stays up while pages time out. Problems are often regional or partial, so one neighborhood or one service type can fail while the rest works.

How we track AT&T
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for AT&T, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for AT&T, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. AT&T doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
