San Juan Island fiber optic cable cut update: Service Restored

 from Jan Kampbell of CenturyLink

Overnight CenturyLink crews restored long distance service throughout San Juan County. CenturyLink and OPALCO continued to work through the night to restore internet service to San Juan Island.

We continue to investigate the fiber optic cut. Divers and specialized robotics are on site and continue to work on locating the severed section of cable.

CenturyLink technicians continue to work around the clock in the San Juan Islands to repair residential and business services impacted by an underwater fiber cut. We apologize for any inconvenience this has created for our customers.
