Network Outage Affects BT Group Firms

Jo Best writes in C|Net News:

BT Group has confirmed that broadband customers suffered outages for several hours Wednesday.

Internet service providers America Online, Virgin.net, Wanadoo and Zen Internet all confirmed that they had been hit by outages. BT, U.K.'s telecommunications giant, said the glitches, which affected people between 8:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. PT, were due to a software problem linked to user authentication.

Three servers were the cause of the problem, which affected customers randomly around the United Kingdom, according to BT.
