Comcast customers around Denver are back to having internet service after an outage Monday night that covered a large part of the city.
The company tweeted around 8 p.m. saying they had crews working to repair and restore service after a fiber was cut.
On DownDetector.com, a massive orange-red blob covered much of the Denver metro. Comcast said the outage was construction-related.
@9News - outage due to construction related fiber cut. Crews repairing and working to restore service ASAP.We are so sorry for inconvenience

The outage started around 5 p.m., and hours later, people are 100% over it.
It was in the fourth hour of the Great Denver Comcast WiFi Outage that we began to turn on each other.

My 20 & 22 yr old are losing their minds with a massive #Denver @comcast outage. I'm making them read books by candlelight

I wonder how many Denver birth stories will start with, "well, sweetheart, Comcast had an outage and we didn't have Netflix or cable, so..."

Hey @comcastcares @9NEWS how do you expect retail businesses to process charge cards with no internet? #nothappy

Garbage service per usual. How about some compensation?

@Comcast would you like to email my professors and tell them I can't do my homework or should I do it myself

With Comcast being down, I fully anticipate burning through all two gigs of data on my phone tonight catching up on Hot Ones.

not even kim kardashian could break the internet as well as @comcast can.

@comcast, @comcastcares every six months you raise prices to supposedly improve service. What gives with the outage in #denver ?
— Peter Quinn (@winquinnwin) September 19, 2017
Apparently someone cut a fiber optic cable. Not sure why the backup link isn't working, but that's the story. *Should* be back in 5 mins...
— Tyler Hicks-Wright (@tghw) September 19, 2017
We did find one person who isn't upset at the outage!
Soooo internet is still out... thinking I'm going to have a glass of wine in bed? Probs the only person in Denver who's not mad at Comcast.
