Hi @onemadgooner 

I checked the status of the ongoing outage raised by NBNCo yesterday, which directly impacts 182 customers. From what I gathered, they initially provided an ETR yesterday (3:25PM AEST) which was supposed to be today at 5:30AM. From the update posted at 7:36PM AEST last night, they noted that the restoration works had to be paused due to heavy rainfall filling the pits with water. It was noted at that time, they were hoping to continue by 8:30AM AEST today once the rainy weather has ceased.

As of 2:04PM AEST today, NBN technicians have returned to the site and are working to restore the services. Unfortunately, NBNCo has been unable to provide an Estimated Time of Restoration yet. That being said, it was  mentioned at 5:21PM AEST that they are seeking progress update from the technicians on-site. The restoration delay is attributed to the unusually high amount of rain, to which field technicians have been delayed since they were tasked to empty out the excessive amounts of water from the pits before attempting restoration on the network hardware.
