Planned outages for the next 6 weeks, between 1am & 6am "for no more than 30min" - been down in New Brighton (edit no PPP authentication) for coming up 40min. http://www.spark.co.nz/help/servicealert/broadbandservicealert

These things happen, might have been nice to be told though :/.

Edit: down for roughly an hour and counting.
