ADT down update: Thousands complain of outage; how to fix ‘reporter and cellular failure’ and ‘log in' issues

On Wednesday, August 12, ADT, a provider of residential and small business security services, experienced a widespread outage that left thousands of customers complaining of various issues. According to Downdetector, over 5,000 people reported problems with the ADT app, app login, and "reporter failure and cellular failure" messages on control panels.

Users also struggled to reach ADT representatives for assistance. The cause of the outage remains unknown, and ADT has not issued an official statement regarding the incident. To troubleshoot the issue, users are advised to reboot their systems, reset passwords, update the app, and clear browser cache. However, given the widespread nature of the problem, it appears the issue may be server-related, making user-end fixes ineffective. As of now, there is no indication of when ADT services will resume normal operation.
