Time Warner Cable suffered a massive service outage in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, leaving an unknown number of its nearly 12 million customers nationwide without service for hours. “As of 6 a.m. ET, services were largely restored … . As of 8 a.m., all services were back to normal,” said TWC spokesperson Eric Mangan. Well, not quite all — Downdetector’s statistics showed outages continued, peaking at 455 reports shortly before 11 a.m. That was “most likely unrelated to the event [Wednesday] morning,” said TWC VP Bobby Amirshahi.
