WISPA just received the following note from Jeff Mabry at Trango:
I'd like to notify all of you that Trango Broadband Wireless is in the midst of the wild fires which are burning out of control in San Diego County. Our facility is safe from harm, however, the national guard has shut down the roads into Poway and evacuated all the residents in the surrounding area, therefore our office is closed today. We anticipate that the roads will be open tomorrow and business will return to normal.

More than willing to cut them some slack, just curious. Thanks
for the updates from everybody. Hope that everything can get under
control out there and you guys are minimally affected.

I believe they are in the San Diego area which is heavily impacted by
the Southern California wildland fires. They may have a) evacuated, b)
lost power, or c) lost Internet access. I'm in the LA area and the
wireless ISP serving me lost power at their access point location (above
Topanga and near Malibu) and was off the air from about 4 PM yesterday
until 1 AM this morning They said backup generators were not permitted
on the mountaintop so they were saving their last 3-4 hours of battery
backup to use this morning for the first few hours of the business day.
I think commercial power has now been restored to the mountaintop
because Internet connectivity has now been up since 1 AM.
Anyway, it would be good to cut Trango some slack as circumstances may
be beyond their control.

Are others having problems with Trango's web site/phones. We
have not been able to get to their site the last couple of days.
Tried
calling to see what is up and ended up in voice mail for the general
mailbox.
