HaHa! Amazing. We had a similar issue where some possible rats (or could
have been squirrels, never found out for sure from them what it was) had
gotten in a customer's wall and bit through the cable, just not
completely severing the wires. So the link was very flaky, in and out.
75% out. Fixed it with some small PVC pipe through the wall.

So, I'm working from home today. The internet goes off. Wireless
router fine...cannot access cpe. The cpe cable runs down the chimney
and I figured it rubbed through on the top. I go up there and it is
fine. I go to basement and head for the cable (runs through 8x8
cleanout to chimney) I go to grab the tarp that is wadded up and
stuffed in the hole and I hear this awful hissing and growling. I
jumped back and about crapped my pants! Long story short....it 2 hrs
later and I now have a cap on the chimney and the GREY SQUIRREL ran
towards the back woods (lucky bastard, I'm too close to town for the
.22) I was using a brick tied to a rope and I was throwing it down
the chimney for an hour. He decided to run when I tried to stab him
with a piece of pvc I found in the basement. Anyway, beware of them
squirrels.
