Residents of Denton are facing a disruption to their daily routine as the city grapples with widespread internet connectivity issues. The City's Department of Technology Services is currently troubleshooting an unexpected network snag that has left public WiFi virtually non-existent in municipal buildings and the downtown core. The glitch has thwarted the Customer Service kiosk at City Hall East, rendering it unable to accept payments.

In a statement released through the official City of Denton website, officials have suggested alternative methods for payment processing. Residents still can make payments in-person or online from their home devices. They also have the option to use one of the two City drop boxes or visit any Fidelity Express payment location in light of the ongoing technical difficulties.

Despite these setbacks, there is a silver lining for the city's bibliophiles. According a recent update from the city, the public library network remains unaffected, enabling book lovers to continue accessing the internet from the comfort of any of the city's three branches. This ensures that, at least within the domain of libraries, the flow of information and resources continues unimpeded.

Forecasts from the City of Denton suggest that the tangled web of network issues could persist for roughly five days. They have pledged to keep citizens informed, promising to notify the community promptly once the full spectrum of services is functional once again. Patience is urged as the city's tech gurus navigate through the complexities of the problem.
