All,
I have just heard from Fibertech that a squirrel has damaged the fiber that
carries our East Campus, Internet 1 and Internet 2 connection. Monday's storm
knocked out the fiber pair that carries Internet 2 traffic. Our East Campus
fiber and Internet 1 fiber is hanging by a thread (literally) so we have given
Fibertech the go ahead to fix the fiber tonight (Thursday June 19) at 12am, we
felt this time would have the least impact on our users. The work should last
2 to 3 hours and if you would like to be notified when it is finished please
send me contact information. We will keep you abreast of any changes or
problems that come up. The affected areas will be ALL internet traffic to and
from campus and the East Campus will be off-line. Please notify the
Telecommunications service desk if you have any questions.
Thanks
Tom Hoey
