Cable TV, Cable Internet and home telephone service was restored to about 17,000 WOW! cable customers in the Northwest suburbs who were without service for most of Monday after a fiber-optic line was severed by another telecommunications company.
WOW! announced on their Facebook website at 5:30 a.m. Tuesday March 13, 2012 that service was restored to customers in Arlington Heights, Des Plaines, Glenview, Mount Prospect, Park Ridge, and Prospect Heights.
WOW! Digital Cable – High Speed Internet — Home Phone was affected by a major outage in Arlington Heights, Des Plaines, Glenview, Mount Prospect, Park Ridge and Prospect Heights starting about 11:45 a.m. Monday. A major fiber-optic line was cut at an intersection in Schaumburg that knocked out service to about 17,000 WOW! customers that have cable television, cable Internet, and cable telephone.
WOW! recently announced a whole-house DVR box that can record six programs simultaneously. The box also serves at the router for Internet.
WOW! has no convenient link to a status page on their website, but a Facebook page (Facebook.com/thewowbuzz) is providing some updates to the incident.
At first the WOW! Facebook update reported 2-3 hours minimum for restoration … then 5-10 hours. The last message of the day reported, “We may possibly have services back up no sooner than Midnight.” That’s a funny sentence from a customer service center that should be on full alert.
TOP TEN CUSTOMER REACTIONS …
1. Need it for Bulls at 7pm and WWE at 8pm.
2. so much for the bulls game
3. Someone got a little too excited with the backhoe
4. I would like to think all Illinois customers would get an automatic credit and not have to call to receive it!
5. Time to look at fiber redundancy.
6. Ugh. Really need updates on the Illinois outage, not worthless patter like this.
7. 24 hours, What!!!!!
8. wow this sucks
9. WOW thats a long time
10. wow what (sic) going on
A lot of people learned to turn their smart phones into hot spots, while others stewed and considered switching to another provider. WOW! still provides competitive service, and all providers need to improve on redundancy and status notifications.
Apple gave the new iPad a bunch of new features but no new name. As expected, it has a sharper screen, driven by a faster processing chip.
Whether you want the new iPad’s features, such as higher resolution and voice dictation, or a less-expensive iPad 2; Apple delivers. The iPad 2 costs $100 less, and the new iPad features are what was expected. At this point Apple still has a winner, compared to the competition.
What’s new for the third-generation iPad?
2048×1536 Retina Display, double the resolution of the iPad 2, rated at 264 pixels per inch. (Remember when the first laser printers were 300 dots per inch?)
The display also has better color saturation.
Faster processor. Dual-core Apple A5X custom-designed, high-performance, low-power system-on-a-chip with quad-core graphics.
5-megapixel “iSight” rear camera/video camera shoots up to 1080p; iPad 2 video camera is 720p. Also includes a VGA quality, 0.3-megapixel “FaceTime” camera for video chats and lower resolution photos. Apple iPad 2′s front and rear cameras are both VGA-quality cameras.
New video image stabilization feature.
The new iPad cellular version is Wi-Fi + 4G on 4G LTE, and still functions on HSPA, HSPA+, and DC-HSDPA. Carriers remain AT&T and Verizon with no contract data per month.
The new iPad can function as a personal hotspot.
Voice dictation for email, SMS, searching the web and for typing functions on third-party apps (But it’s not Siri).
Built-in 42.5-watt-hour rechargeable lithium-polymer battery with about the same duration as the iPad 2 with less power hungry processing and its smaller 25-watt-hour rechargeable lithium-polymer battery.
