Here is what I have recieved thus far: Updated By: psarrate at 09-29-1999 19:24 GMT The teleco reports that the cut may have been caused by gas company workers while they were doing construction work in the area. Estimated time to repair (ETR) is 4 to 6 hours. The reason for this extened time is because there is not enough slack in the cable to bring the two cut ends together. An additional section of fiber is needed to make the splice. The needed fiber is hours away and needs to be trucked in. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Russell Briggs TEL: 512-682-7705 Senior Network Engineer PGR: 512-603-0087 CyberCorp, Inc.
