The PIR that PIPE sent us last week said that is appeared to be a deliberate attack on their infrastructure, and that the matter was being reported to the NSW police.<div><br></div><div>One person that I spoke to, who I won't name, suggested that whoever did it may have been looking to cut fibre cable that was NBN related as a political statement since all the NBN advertisements have just begun, however they don't realise it's not an NBN-related fibre circuit. Pure speculation of course.</div>
<div><br></div><div>However, now that we're down to cut number 3, you would have to assume it's a deliberate attack.</div><div><br></div><div>Thankfully PIPE fixed us up within a few hours of the original cut and put us on a protected circuit out at Cromer (that we were meant to be on all along, but that's another story), so these recent outages have not affected our network at all.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I hope they find the b@stard and cut his 'cable' in retaliation. ;)</div><div><br clear="all"><div>Cheers,<br>
