[2023-02-13 12:04:41 NZDT] 12:01pm NZT - A correction to our previous update, this outage is not limited to fibre customers and is affecting a variety of Lightwire services leading us to believe that these outages are related to power outages in the Pokeno, Miranda and Coromandel regions. The information is corroborated by power outages reported by WEL Networks and Counties Energy. We will continue to monitor the situation however we have no ETA on when power will be restored to the area.
