You can never tell with these modern electronic devices/ They either work or not, but nobody knows for sure why ;)

"The transport circuits that connect Dallas and San Antonio are supplied by different providers, and are specified as running on diverse fiber paths. Continuing our investigation, the Network Operations Center was able to determine that the connectivity loss was the result of a fiber maintenance being performed by an underlying long-haul carrier, for which PEER 1 Hosting was not notified. At 03:30 CT, the first transport circuit came back online, which fully restored network connectivity to the San Antonio Data Center.

At the moment it is unclear how separate providers with previously diverse circuits paths would both be impacted by the same fiber work. We will be following up with our San Antonio transport providers and assessing how this scope of work had the impact that it did and then take appropriate action to ensure circuit redundancy is reinstituted. Additionally, PEER 1 Hosting will be doing an audit of the current fiber paths being used throughout our transport links to ensure full network redundancy is available in all locations."
