FairPoint: Internet Outage Resolved After 12 Hours

FairPoint internet service is back up and running in New Hampshire and Maine after being down since late last night.

The cause and scope of the outage is still unknown, according to FairPoint’s Public Relations Manager Jeff Nevins.

“What we do know is that it’s intermittent for some. That some people can get on and have been able to access the internet…”

The DSL internet service was restored at about two o’clock today. FairPoint Communications services more than six hundred and thirty five thousand access lines in New Hampshire and Maine.
