Internet service is the most widely reported issue, with 58 percent claiming they’ve got connectivity problems. A solid 21 percent are saying TV isn’t doing what it should, while 19 percent are reporting a total blackout.

Personally, Comcast is my ISP, and I’ve got no connectivity issues, though Portland is on the outage map. When I tried to visit the Comcast website to check on my account, it wouldn’t let me through. Fingers crossed.
