Verizon has fully restored its network after a major disruption impacted thousands of users across the U.S. The outage, which started around 9:30 a.m. ET, left many customers without service in cities like Chicago, Seattle, and Phoenix. Some iPhone users were stuck in "SOS" mode, unable to connect to a cellular network. At the peak of the disruption, there were over 105.000 reports of outages. The outage tracking service showed widespread issues in areas including Minneapolis, Omaha, and Denver. Verizon engineers quickly began resolving the issue, and by later in the day, services were returning to normal levels.
