DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. \u2014 DeKalb County Schools\u2019 internet issues are continuing into a second day.<\/p>\n

While the district told Channel 2 Action News<\/b> Wednesday night that service had been restored<\/a>, a spokesman confirmed Thursday morning that they were offline again.<\/p>\n

The outage is districtwide and started Wednesday at about 6 a.m. after a fiber-optic cable outside of the DeKalb County School District was damaged.<\/p>\n

Technicians arrived at about 11:30 a.m., confirming the damage was outside of district property.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, the district said technicians discovered additional breaks overnight, leading to a second repair team coming in to start work shortly before midnight.<\/p>\n

\u201cRepair work has continued without interruption, but Zayo has not yet provided an estimated time for full restoration of internet service,” a spokesman said. \u201cThe District recognizes the challenges this outage poses to teaching, learning, and daily operations, and we appreciate everyone\u2019s patience and understanding during this time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Going forward, the district plans to \u201cimplement a network redundancy plan to lessen our dependence on any single internet provider in the coming months.\u201d<\/p>\n
