Hi Kitzens,

Seems there's a MSO at Talktalk as a few people locally to me have no internet access. I'm with Uno BB and can't use the net since my service is provided by TT Wholesale. Is anyone else having issues? If I do a reboot of my VMG8924-B10A, the Internet LED flashes red for a split second and never comes back on although I do have a solid orange sync LED on.

I don't get it, fibre is marked quite clearly as being fibre.  How thick do you have to be to break it before realising its not copper?

I guess the scum that do this are not very bright.

I guess the scum that do this are not very bright.

And quite possibly with worse less eyesight than they had before.

Yeah in America I've heard about the "target practice" thing before, they even do it to high-voltage cables which is insane as if it actually broke they could end up dead or killing someone else.

Some years ago a moron dug up the fibre that goes under Loch Carrann, hoping to sell the non-existent copper.

Horrendous. All the grief these fools cause. I'm assuming that they were after copper?

An idiot cut into a fibre cable where it emerges from the shore of the sea-loch Loch Carrann a few years ago. After copper. Caused some thankfully limited chaos, cut various vital local services off. Somehow I myself was unaffected even though users a few miles away who were much nearer to the Broadford exchange, which serves me, were stuffed completely.
