Some wireless customers are experiencing an intermittent service interruption for wireless voice and data services.

"We have identified the root cause of the service issues and pinpointed a recent Ericsson software update that affected a piece of equipment in the central part of our wireless network. That led to intermittent congestion and service impacts for many customers across the country."

Rogers wireless calls, SMS & data services are starting to return to normal for our customers.
