My air conditing unit suddenly stopped working so I was like, "Oh fuck" and opened my computer to look up how much a new one would cost. That's when I discover the modem also isn't working. I thought this was a weird coincidence so I dangerously stretched the AC cord to another outlet and Viola! So, I guess three outlets stopped working at once? Fun times.

TL;DR Cool with no internet and outlets are stupid.

Are they, by any chance, on the same circuit? Maybe check your breaker box?

I'm sure it has something to do with that but I don't even know if we have a breaker box in our unit. I'm trying to figure it out.

Did you check your circuit breakers to make sure you didnt trip one?

They were doing installing carpet out in the hallway today and nailing stuff. Not sure if it's related.

Most residential circuits are 15 or 20 amps. A small air compressor for nailing can draw between 8-12 amps and an air conditioner could easily draw 15 amps by itself, so it's totally possible the circuit was overloaded. Most places require a circuit breaker box in each unit as code, and if not, there might be an electrical room you can access, so it's worth looking around to see if you tripped it.

I'm sure that's what happened. I can't find one in our until so I'm going to have my husband venture downstairs to see if he can find one. This has never happened before. :arghh:

Sometimes apartments can put the breaker box in a closet or utility closet where the water heater is.
