UPDATE from Southeastern Indiana REMC's Facebook page: 

The fiber outage remains ongoing at this time. SEI Fiber connects members through an upstream fiber provider, and that provider is currently experiencing an outage. This issue continues to affect multiple providers in the area, not just SEI Fiber.

Our team remains in direct communication with our upstream fiber provider as they work to restore service. We understand how frustrating it is to be without service, and we are continuing to ask for the same information our members are asking for, including when service will be restored.

At this time, we still do not have an estimated restoration time. We will share confirmed updates as soon as more information becomes available.

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

According to Southeastern Indiana REMC, the outage started around 7:50 a.m.

As of 10:34 a.m., the company has confirmed that a fiber line was cut outside of their network, which is affecting multiple service providers in the area. 

At this time, there is not estimated time for restoration. 

"We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available and thank you for your continued patience while repairs are underway," reads a statement from Southeastern Indiana REMC.
