Anyone having problems staying connected on the net in the last half hour 
Yep. Last two days for me. Especially bad today
This is just crazy here
nope
Even while I am connected, getting anything other than local websites 
is hit-and-miss 
Oh noes! Troll Alert.
Anyways, yes, the internet has been problematic for me in the past hour. Start after there was a brief surge, not a full out power outage, but enough to drop the lights down low, and knock me offline. After that happened the connectivity went downhill.
Please note, that it wasn’t much of a hill to go down, as I find on the hour every hour I get disconnected from server in WoW, and msn craps out. Only long enough to knock me offline though.
Right now, it seems a smidge better, I am finally able to log back into WoW, and msn works about 50% of the time.
We’re starting 2008 off strong!
Yeah, I had a brief surge as well, and my computers re-booted. Maybe the power surge was right across PR.
It ain’t just rupert… happening here too.
A friend of my family had a power surge at her family’s home.
apparently the surge protector for her home Computer wasn’t sufficient and blew something.
her computer doesn’t work anymore 
She really fucked up. Bought a surge protector and trusted it…
