I'm pretty sure the WISPs in the Santa Cruz and Gilroy/Morgan Hill areas 
were all also taken offline due to the fiber cut.  (Roy, can you verify, 
for south county?)  Anyone in those areas who relied on a WISP as a 
backup to their fiber/copper link found that their "redundant" system 
wasn't really redundant after all.

You may want to check (verify) how your 2 main providers handle their 
backhaul.
