***Update 24/10/25 8.49am*** Hi everyone, Our Network Team has identified a known outage affecting one of our sites on the Ruahine Ranges due to last night’s weather. Our technicians are already on their way to repair the equipment, and we’re hoping to have it back up and running later this morning. If you’re currently without internet, feel free to call us on 0800 484 363 to check whether your connection is affected by this outage. We apologise for the disruption and appreciate your patience while we get this resolved. ---- Network Update – Weather Impact - 23/10/25 - 4PM The extreme weather has caused an issue with one of our main Inspire Rural Wireless network links. We’re routing traffic a different way overnight while repairs are planned for tomorrow. Customers on our Inspire Net Rural Wireless service in Kimbolton, Pohangina, Ashhurst, and Eketahuna may notice slower speeds this evening. We’re running at about 25% less capacity than usual, so things should still work, just a bit slower at busy times. Some areas may not notice much impact as power outages have reduced overall demand. Thanks for your patience while we get everything back to normal. |

We’re currently experiencing a wireless service issue across parts of the Manawatū–Whanganui region. A large number of our access points (APs) unexpectedly changed frequencies overnight, due to wireless interference across the area. Our Network Operations Centre (NOC) is actively working on the issue by reconfiguring the affected APs. This process is underway and may take some time to complete. If you're affected: Give our helpdesk a call (0800 484 363) and we can walk you through rebooting your Subscriber Unit ( Aerial located on your property). — The Inspire Net Team |
