For the last 10-12 hours (July 14 @ 4:00pm CST onward) I've been seeing fast busy signals dialing from land lines, and various "All circuits are busy" and "Service unavailable" and other type messages on cell phones on local calls (calls within the 847 area code)
I've been able to confirm that I can dial my toll free number (which terminates to a 817 number), and that when I set my Vonage phone (totally different area code) to ring for 10 seconds then forward to
847, it rings 10 seconds then goes back to a "All circuits are busy"In some cases after dialing I can hear touchtone keys, approx 30ms and very regular pattern (machine dialed, not human dialed)
Anybody else seeing similar?
