Howdy,

For hub 3 nodes, sorry, I've been down the last few days.

A neighbours tree (across the road), which is about 25m high snapped in half due to high winds on Wednesday and landed on the power lines that supplies my house and neighbours house. It also included the HFC internet line.

It all happened at a time, when my kids were walking home from school, and my son got hit by the powerlines and the branches of the tree. Sparks flew everywhere, freaked him out, but thankfully the power line was insulated and he is OK.

(Also, fortunately, his sister was annoyed with him, so she was 5m or more behind him.)

Power was restored yesterday and I have the internet company coming out on Wednesday morning to restore the HFC capable. SO hopefully hub 3 will be back in business then.
