As we were not able to complete the planned work that was scheduled for Sunday 13th March we are planning a second visit on Thursday 17th March at 2am.

We are planning to replace our core network switches in Telehouse early Thursday morning. This is part of our network upgrades to increase our capacity. The work is being carried out in the early hours of Thursday to minimise impact on customers.

We do expect Internet connectivity to be affected temporarily as we move cables around. We aim to minimise disruption but there will be times when broadband customers will lose PPP and be offline for a few minutes. Other customers and wholesalers who we provide connectivity to will notice that BGP sessions will be taken down and brought back up one by one. Staff will be on IRC during this time and this status post will also be updated.

The work is expected to start from around 2am and will last approximately 4 hours.

We do apologise for the short notice of this work. The date it was dependent on some other factors outside of our control so it was difficult to give a longer notice period.
