I'm actually in the studio working on this. Need to check cable runs from
the nearest switch to the studio & other wrfu machines. Most other machines
& wifi in the building are back online now.

Comcast has been claiming big issues on their support line due to the
weather. Not surprised since their technology sux.

Hope to have the studio back online soon.
