Internet down Ticknell Piece area

Tue 2 Jun, 22:36

More info: further to my earlier posts,

1. faults were reported to BT at around 4pm. 

2. There was an extremely close to here lighting strike at around 3pm. 

3. Equipment cabinets I understand have around two hours of backup battery power.

4. My internet went down completely at 7.06 pm ( a time recorded on my live weather data feed).

Seems to me a mains trip/ fuse issue with the battery backup failing later.

I did the same Richard! Must have missed you... Openreach were marked on the road closure notices and I think it was them working on a trench across the Enstone Road to Wychwood Paddocks yesterday. Not sure if they were there today. Wonder also if this was a consequence of the thunderstorms this afternoon.

Just a further thought... All the posters who gave a location are probably served by the distribution boxes at the Slade/Enstone Road corner. Do people elsewhere in Charlbury still have Internet service?

I just walked out to check the boxes and they are intact. Some may recall a few years ago when a collision at the corner caused a car to take out one of the boxes.

Thanks all for the updates. End of tomorrow, eh? Must be fairly major. Hope the OpenReach folks nearby didn't slice through a cable.
