Widespread outage on ResNet, 2012-01-19 (resolved)Permanent Link to Widespread outage on ResNet, 2012-01-19 (resolved)

Thursday, January 19th, 2012

Update: 13:20
And we're back in business.  Service has been restored all ResNet accommodation.

History of this outage is shown below.

As of 12:30 today (19th Jan) just under a third of ResNet has lost internet connectivity.

Early investigations seem to imply that there is a power problem affecting Priory Road possibly extending as far as The Triangle.  This means we've lost power to the core networking equipment which feeds most of the centrally located accommodation - this has knocked out both Wired ResNet and Wireless ResNet services in the affected halls.

Hopefully, ResNet will just spring back to life when the power comes back on, but we will be keeping a close eye on it just incase.

  • Chantry Court
  • 33 Colston Street
