Before I start major local troubleshooting, anyone else having a fibre outage in the Wellington region on skinny?

My connection just dropped, and now I'm getting
Timeout waiting for PADO packets.
Outage started at 9:36 this morning.
Have checked chorus and spark page pages and nothing there.

I'm in Churton park as well, yeah happened to me, around 8am. Its annoying as I checked chorus site, typed in my address and nothing...

After 3 reboots of the ONT and router - nothing

After calling Skinny 0800, didnt expect to be connected fast with someone so hung on for about 20 mins and hung up (recorded message saying "due to COVID we are experiencing increased call volumes...)

The thought of working from home for the rest of the day being tethered to my phone sucks

It managed to fix itself after about 10.30am luckily
