Santa Rosa Wireless Outage

We are currently experiencing an outage affecting a subset of wireless customers served off one of our antenna sites in Santa Rosa. We are working as quickly as possible to repair the problem but do not have an estimated time to repair at this point. Further updates will be provided as the situation develops.

-Tim, Jared, and the NOC

Update: The downed tower has been returned to service and all affected customers should be online. If you are still experiencing problems with your wireless Internet service, please contact support at 707-547-3400.

News server issues

Our NNRP server, news.sonic.net, is currently only partially functional.  We’ve temporarily lost network connectivity to the provider we use for binary spools.  While some articles may be available locally on our servers, most are likely available only on the remote spools.  We’re working with our providers to restore service as soon as possible.

Update: As of 9:20PM the problem has been resolved.  It may take a little while for our servers to catch up but news is flowing normally again.
