Yes indeed, the cable was damaged by a shotgun blast. While our Qwest link is currently up and running Global NAPS (owner of the fiber cable) need to splice the cable to be able to remove the part of the cable that was damaged by the blast. Repair work will start just after midnight. If all goes well, the work should be completed within an hour, but we have been told the worst case should be no more than 3 hours.
