January 14th, 2024 – Klamath Falls
Spectrum services in Klamath Falls have been down for many customers since the early morning hours Sunday. Internet, TV, and phone services are down.
Danielle Dunn a communications director with Spectrum told us the outage is due to a damaged fiber optic line that belongs to a third party.
“Damage to a third-party carrier’s fiber optic network is impacting service for Spectrum customers in Klamath Falls. Our engineering team has engaged that carrier and crews are actively working to repair the damage as quickly as possible.”
As of posting time there is no time estimate for when services will be restored. Some local business have closed today because they are unable to run credit cards. Some ATM machines have also been reported down. Local cellular towers have been overwhelmed with traffic slowing internet and data speeds on the local cellular network for many residents.
If any additional information is provided we will update this post.
**Most services appear to be restored at 5:15pm**
Wow, all it takes is a fiber optic cable getting damaged to shut down many, many businesses. To make matters worse, the services may not even be up today. Businesses are losing alot of money!!!
FIBER OPTICS? Wow! That’s the holy Grail in internet. I don’t think anyone but the Lord can fix that. I heard there is a guy down off 7th avenue the has had luck with fiber optical. He is on the left, he use to fix trash compactors until they went holy grail on us also. Oh yeah, Steve at the land fill has had success repairing fiber optics. I hear if you buy him a half rack, he can fix just about anything. Hope this helps.
