GoDaddy, the company that hosts Oak Ridge Today, said AT&T customers are temporarily unable to access its network.

A GoDaddy representative said Wednesday afternoon the company is working to resolve the issue.

The network issues have prevented some local readers who are also AT&T customers from being able to access Oak Ridge Today. There don’t appear to be any problems on other networks.
