We had lost our Century Link phone/internet last summer. We called on the cell phone and a tech came by about two hours later. He checked and said the battery in the garage, which provides backup service in the event of a power failure, had be hit by lightning. We had a bad storm a couple of days earlier, he said that is probably what happend and it just was able to stay working a day or two. He replaced the battery and all was fine. We've not had any outages since then, we're located just north of 466A not far from Seabreeze Rec Center.
