Evening all,
Came home today to no internet. Turned the modem off at the wall for 20mins and nothing. Turned it off for about 1.5hrs still nothing.
Rang slingshot, was a failure at some stage in my area but all good now. Only problem was the optical light on the wall unit was solid red so still no internet.
End result is a technician is booked to come within the next 3 days. Big bummer with a long weekend upon us.

Anyone else had this issue? Resolved easily?

Sounds the same as an issue we had a few months back. A technician had accidentally knocked out our connection while connecting up one of the neighbours in the pit down the street. A couple of people I know have had the same issue, so anecdotally it seems common. My guess is the same has happened to your connection.

Happily they had us up and running not long after I reported the fault.
