Rogers Network Outage Disrupts Thousands, Now Fully Resolved
Hey everyone, just wanted to talk about something that affected a lot of people across Canada earlier today — the Rogers network outage. It was a pretty hectic few hours, especially for anyone relying on mobile services for work, communication, or even just daily tasks.
So, here’s what happened. At around 11 a.m. Eastern time, users started reporting major issues with Rogers mobile services. In fact, by midday, a third-party site called Downdetector.ca had logged over 8,100 reports. The complaints ranged from not being able to make calls, send texts, or access the internet, to people getting SIM card errors on their phones.

The outage didn’t just hit Rogers users either. Fido, which is owned by Rogers, was also impacted. More than half the complaints were about a total loss of mobile signal, meaning no bars, no service — nothing.
Now, the good news is, Rogers has since resolved the issue. A spokesperson from the company confirmed that services have been restored. However, if you were affected and things still aren’t quite back to normal, they recommend restarting your phone. That should clear up any lingering problems.
The RogersHelp account on X (formerly Twitter) confirmed the issue earlier and kept users updated. It’s frustrating, especially when we’re so dependent on connectivity — not just for personal use, but for businesses, schools, even emergency communication. While outages like this aren’t totally unheard of, they serve as a pretty big reminder of how interconnected we all are.
Hopefully, Rogers provides a more detailed explanation soon. People are understandably asking questions: What caused it? Could it happen again? Was it maintenance or a technical failure? So far, the details are limited.
Either way, for now, service is back up and running, and if you were caught in the middle of it — you’re not alone. Let’s hope Rogers puts systems in place to prevent something like this from happening again anytime soon.
