Worldwide Communications Were Taken Offline Right Before The Attacks On 9/11
9-11-01: 2-5 am, Verizon & other ISP's "updated" their East Coast networks. 6:38 am, 2 hours before WTC 1 explosion, I captured some kind of energetic pulse processing BNL Nexrad data. Only THREE cell
Yeah...this may actually have a reasonable explanation. 60 Hudson, the main telecom switch hotel for most of Eastern North America and the primary interconnect for Europe, is only about 1000 yards from the World Trade Center. In addition to the fiber cables that were likely destroyed in the collapse, the dust from the collapse could have rendered the backup generators nonfunctional when the power went out. The internet is resilient and alternate routes would be found, but taking out that much bandwidth at once would have severely taxed the alternate routes, making them incredibly slow. Combine that with the number of critical servers located there, and you can understand why the internet would appear to go down for many.
It would have been incredibly difficult to get technicians in there to fix things during to confusion. People were probably being told to evacuate.
Not saying this wasn't all part of the plan, but it could also simply have been collateral damage. Remember, ALL of those cell sites around New York are going to route back to 60 Hudson.
Assuming the carriers were given advance warning of the event, my guess is the updates would be to designed to minimize the disturbance to the rest of their networks, rather than to cause the outage itself.

9-11-01: 2-5 am, Verizon & other ISP's "updated" their East Coast networks.
6:38 am, 2 hours before WTC 1 explosion, I captured some kind of energetic pulse processing BNL Nexrad data.
Only THREE cell sites reported destroyed in the "attacks" but this pulse blew out 300,000 phone lines, 3.6 million data circuits & disabled 173 cell cites around Manhattan.
Within minutes of the first tower collapse, ISP's all over the world were temporarily disabled.
Well my ISP was still working that night in Australia, I was on yahoo chat talking to a friend when he said watch the tv something just happened to world trade centre
