That's not proof that ooma was at fault. It could have been a business partner of theirs, their backbone provider, any number of other parties.

We'll never know until they offer an explanation.

We apparently disagree here on what Ooma, as a service provider, should be providing to their customers in terms of information regarding outages. From my perspective, as of recent, their communication to customers has been lacking. I apparently expect more than you do.
Apparently we do disagree on that point. I would agree that to the extent that Ooma has experienced a failure that should to the extent known before the issue is resolved, try to inform their customers of the status. However, rather than chase down random failures which may or may not be traceable, I would much prefer that Ooma expend it resources on further development and refinement of its product. Now, the major nationwide outage experienced last year deserved an explanation given the duration and the widespread nature. However, I have absolutely no concern or need to know about a alleged outage that is limited in scope or duration.

If you really want to know, why not call the 800 number you were attempting during the "outage" and ask them if they are aware of the problem, and if so, whether they identified the source, and if so, whether they can provide you with information on how the issue was resolved.

Or, you could send a letter or email to Ooma demanding an explanation. Who knows, you might get a response. Have you done that yet? If not, why not?

If your fine, thats great for you, but other people are not fine, and are requesting improvements.

Please step aside as obviously this does not concern you. ;)
Really! So, if it turned out that a half dozen ATnT subscribers had the same experience, that would mean it is ATnT's fault, right? Same with Verizon or other providers, right? Sorry, your offer of proof fails. At best what you are offering is very weak circumstantial evidence.

By the way, I have as much right to protest your protest as you have to protest in the first place.

I did. *days* ago. No response. No email confirmation. No ticket. Nothing. FAIL FAIL FAIL. I have complained about their total lack of communication via their so-called email tool before.

My Ooma was down and I reset everything, it connected for a few minutes and then went down again. It's back up now. I'm in Minnesota. My parent's Ooma in California was down at the same time, so it must have been a nationwide interuption.

Edit: Now it's down again... <shrug>
