Probably a CME causing an EMP in your neck of the woods. A big solar storm is supposedly going to be hitting us over the next few days.
OR....
Some rock from planet x hit your sat, and they are trying to get another sat there.
I think the CME is more likely.
Dump sat and cable, start a garden, and you won't have this issue again.

I had a "restricted" phone call on my cell yesterday. No one on the other end, don't know what it was about. So, solar is getting back to "normal", no earthquakes in the NE.
Can't find any sites for the status of the cables. Could be a hickup, or someone is hacking in force.
Cable is expensive for me, and rots my brain. I envy that you have a garden. I live in apartments so this is difficult for me to scale to my desires at the moment.
Still, that is "strange" that the network had low throughput...unless the stock market, and / or banks are doing dirty night high volume shady trading. (just about anything is possible).
