Service Outage - Feb 1st, 2024W

Internet Services were restored last evening sometime after 10PM. We appreciate everyone’s patience.

We are experiencing a network outage due to the fiber optic lines line being severed by vandals south of the Ohkay Casino. Repair crews are onsite. There is no estimated time to repair currently, however we are hopeful it will be soon. We will provide a status update here, on our outgoing phone message and on FaceBook.

The repair was completed sometime in the evening. Service is restored. Thanks you all for your patience.

We are currently experiencing a service outage from our upstream provider due to a cut in the fiber optic lines north of Espanola. Most of our tower sites are currently offline. We do not have an estimated time for repairs to be completed, however expect it will be fixed by this evening. Thanks for your patience.

Localized outage, Espanola

EDIT: as of approximately 9:05 AM the localized service outage has been restored. As of roughly 9:35, our Cogent connection is restoring routes and is passing traffic. We should return to normal capacity over the course of the day. The Cogent connection is not officially repaired, we may lose capacity, but things are trending towards repaired.

Starting at approximately 5:00 AM this morning Saturday December 3rd we are experiencing a localized outage affecting approximately 65 clients in Espanola and are on site investigating at this time.

Our main transport link is still offline and we are operating at reduced network capacity while Cogent completes their repairs and fully restores our service. Thank you for your understanding.

Systemwide outage

2022-12-01 20:00: We are operating at reduced capacity over a backup connection at this time and have reduced bandwidth. The internet is going to be on, but slow. Thank you for your understanding.

2022-12-01 16:51: All services restored as of 16:45. A huge thanks to support provided to Cogent by ABQ IX and the private members who did the heavy lifting to bring us back online.

Thank you all for your patience, please watch for a more detailed postmortem.

2022-12-01 14:08:Cogent has gained access as of 1:01 PM and is working with a local exchange provider to bring all equipment back online. They have not provided an ETR, but this is large progress. More to come as we know more.

EDIT 2022-12-01 9:30: We just received an update from Cogent saying they will have access to repair their failed equipment and restore our service at 14:00 this afternoon. As we receive more updates we will update our socials and messages.

EDIT 2022-12-01 3:00: As of 3:00 AM Dec 1st, Cogent crews have been unable to gain access to the damaged equipment responsible for this outage. They have rescinded their previous ETR and do not have an update at this time.

We sincerely apologize for this continued outage and are working to restore service across different avenues at this time. Thank you all for your ongoing patience.

EDIT 2022-11-30 21:40: We just received word that Cogent, the party responsible for the current outage, will gain access at 12:00 tonight and estimate a service restoration time of approximately 06:00 on the 1st. We have our fingers crossed. Thank you for your patience.

EDIT 2022-11-30 14:47: As of writing, our services remain down and we have no estimated time of resolution. Repair crews are still awaiting access to begin their repairs in a data center in Albuquerque, where the issue is centered. As soon as we have more information we will provide an update.

EDIT 21:36: We just received word that the outage is due to damage in the middle of the state caused by a pole failure that also had powerline involvement.
