Basically a repeat from 12-30-2013.  They are just going to roll a new bundle today to restore service.  It "feels" like -40 out there, so hard to say how long this is going to take given the conditions.

Windstream has 2 technicians at the Wisconsin River office and 1 technician dispatched to the Platteville, WI office with an estimated time of arrival of 9:45 CT. Their current plan is for the Windstream technicians along with their engineering team to roll fibers to restore service. There is no ETTR at this time.

Hopefully this will be the long term fix.
