Yea, mine was out for most of the day. As for it being a cyberattack, of course it was, but AT&T won't dare tell you that.

That was my first thought because so many states were involved. If all of our communications suddenly go down, I look for an enemy attack. No one has reported the cause yet, it wasn't just one carrier but many. Why is there silence in the media?
I actually heard about it on the news before my worker told me. And yesterday I saw a post from an ATT user in St Louis saying they only had 1 bar ad normally have solid 5 bars. But have not heard a cause as of yet.
I also lost my Wifi this morning for a couple of hours. Last week folks had trouble getting through to me, I thought it was a problem on their end. A patient portal was doing flip flops yesterday, not working properly at all, it was fine this afternoon.
I also heard yesterday, the medical industry told their employees not to open emails with attachments because there was a known attack happening with them.
The solar flares is a good potential reason. My thoughts were the possibility of a "test attack" by one of our enemies. If we ever lose all communications I look for an invasion of our shores or further attacks on America. An ISIS leader who came over the border to the U.S. gave a brief interview a couple of weeks ago. They mentioned his name to him, he said something to the effect, "you will soon know my name, everyone will know my name." Biden has let everyone in, terrorists included.
Another thought is; Biden has let so many in, possibly to have men to fight a war, since there are few young Americans now.

I did not say solar flares were or were not the cause. What I said is since it was more than just ATT users having issues, being just an error on ATT side does not make sense.
