🚨 Greenwood Internet Outage Update 🚨

We just got off the phone with Greenwood Internet. About 100 customers are currently without service after a crew from Triple T Fence hit a fiber line in the Stoneridge area.

According to Greenwood Internet, the company did not call 811 before digging, which is required before any excavation work.

Thankfully, they didn’t hit the main fiber line — that could have caused widespread cell and internet disruptions across the area.

Greenwood Internet has contacted AT&T to repair the damaged line, but there’s no timeline yet for when service will be restored.
