You'd think after three previous disruptions, that Qwest would have enabled some form of redundancy. The Washington State PUC doesn't appear to be providing very good oversight.
Farmington, NM doesn't have any redundancy either. Two types of problems seem to drive the 3 or 4 outages in the last few years: - electrcity cut-off at fiber regen sites because no one pays the rural electric co-ops - target shooting of splice boxes Even though Qwest is the ILEC, you can't really blame the outages on them -- they don't own the fiber route or huts, nor do they have any way to deal with Cousin Jimmy's rattlesnake gun. I hate to see what would happen if the damage was intentional...
