Comcast subscribers east of the Mississippi River (and in Minnesota) can’t seem to catch a break. Following a major outage that affected East Coast customers a week ago, CNet now reports that some subscribers in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Minnesota are also without service.
The ISP confirmed via its Twitter account, “Comcastcares,” that this current outage is due to a DNS related issue, just like the last one.
“OK confirmed we are still having trouble today, will keep you all posted,” Comcast tweeted less than an hour ago.
For customers who can’t wait for Comcast to resolve the issue, the ISP reports that using a third-part DNS service, like Google or OpenDNS, will get users back online.
