We dried our technical cabinets with the help of 9 Selfnet members over a few hours last night. Afterwards, we covered the cabinets with waterproof tarpaulins and equipped them with dehumidifiers. This made it possible for us to put the Selfnet WLAN back into operation with new switches almost everywhere during the night.
For temperature reasons, we do not want to operate any more devices under the tarpaulins. For the floors 1-4 there will be only one W-LAN connection for the time being. With the provision of the LAN connection we will wait until the shaft in which the water damage occurred has been dried by the building owner and the humidity has been reduced. After that, we will be able to dismantle our enclosures and reinstall all the equipment.
On the other floors, things are currently looking good. Everything should work there again. However, due to the still wet building cabling, we cannot rule out the possibility of power being taken away from us here again, which could lead to further outages.
