(St. Francois County, MO) AT & T's networks are coming back up after a failure Thursday morning caused outages for around 60,000 customers. Phone could not be placed nor could text messages, be placed. Internet access was also hampered but by mid morning company officials indicated much of the network had been restored. Verizon and TMobile also reported several outages but nothing as wide spread. AT & T officials haven't said what caused the problem. They do say you can use Wifi calling until your service is restored. You can access Wifi calling by going to the settings app on your phone. iPhone users should hit "cellular" while Android users should check "connection". You'll then be prompted to turn on the Wifi calling feature.
