Here in NOLA, the sky got really dark, it rained very heavily for about 2 minutes, and now the sky has lightened up significantly and it appears to be over.


The heaviest stuff hasn't come through yet

Baton Rouge is in the clear as far as severe weather is concerned. Light rain for the next couple of hours.

Eatel fiber hanging on strong


I’ve had Eatel for nearly 11 years.
Had 1 outage for about 2 hours and immediately got a text message about when it would be back on.

Never lost it during Ida. Had to plug in my power source into my generator, but never lost it.

Washington Parish. 35-40 mph wind for about 2 minutes then rain by the buckets. Now just casual rain no wind. Nothing behind it for a good while at least.

It's nearly all buried, at least in the newer areas. REV now. Unless pedestals or nodes get hit, it's pretty solid as far as infrastructure goes. Your aerial cables are what take a beating in storms or if poles go down.

Yep one of the best things about fiber is if you get your ONT and gateway powered via a generator you have Internet, unlike with cable service where if your street loses power it doesn't matter if you get your modem energized
