Saturna restored/Temporary fix for backbone connection – 02/01/2022
Connectivity has been restored at our local broadcast point on Saturna.
We are currently running on a backup connection for our link that serves western Orcas, Saturna, and Waldron. The hardware restoration did not go we had hoped, and we have ordered replacement parts; until they arrive we will remain on the backup connection. This connection has been used as a main connection in the past, and should be sufficient for normal internet usage.
