History:


[2023-01-28 13:23:34 NZDT] Lightwire Engineers have become aware of a fault on our transmission links, at our Tirohia and Henry Watson Road Sites. This is affecting serviceability for these areas. Engineers are currently investigating the root cause, but until a fix is implemented, you may experience intermittent connection quality and degraded service. Adjacent sites of Kaimai Ranges and Wairakau may experience some degraded services while these sites use back up pathways.

We will be working hard to get you back up and running but if you have any questions or concerns in the meantime please reach out to us at 0800 12 13 14.
