Original story (published on May 12, 2022) follows:

Formerly known as Atlantic Broadband, Breezeline is an internet service provider that operates under Cogeco Communications.

Apart from broadband, it offers TV and phone services using a combination of coaxial cable and fiber to the premises network. Currently, Breezeline operates in 12 states and has more than 700,000 broadband subscribers as of 2021.

Cogeco Communications said they will slowly integrate the company’s Columbus and Cleveland operations under the Breezeline name by summer 2022.

That said, Breezeline users are now reporting that the service is down. Many are expressing their frustration on social media platforms like Twitter.

Down detector – a popular service that gives information about live outages – has several reports indicating that Breezeline internet is indeed down or not working for some.
