Wanganui UFB, internet down, orcon.co.nz down, Orcon 0800 number down. Seems like some poor sods are getting emergency phone calls to get to work and fix a meltdown. Would love any info when available.

Hi all,

Our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused by the outage. DSL customers should now be able to get back online (you may need to reboot your device).

We're seeing reports from UFB customers who are still offline, even after a reboot. Our engineers are working on this now and hope to have service restored as quickly as possible.

As pointed out above, check out our network status page for the latest: http://www.orcon.net.nz/support/network_status

Cheers, apologies again!
