Who is your transport into the NAP? Is it Bellsouth?

One interesting effect during the last hurricane was that Broward  
county customers (Ft Lauderdale is in that county) had no dial tone  
service but dsl was working.  Someone mentioned they lost the  
tandem.  The comment was made that voip phones were working and not  
the traditional lines which some found ironic.

I also see some people at the NAP down on XO but L3 and Broadwing etc  
are up down the street.

With some more information perhaps we will start to see where some  
common elements might have failed.

Anyone at the Bellsouth Grande CO with issues?
