We were offline at home until about an hour ago following the storms last night. I was afraid a tree had taken out the line, as happened during the tornado cluster recently, but apparently it was another problem, now corrected.
Props to Comcast, often bashed by me when I am deprived of connectivity. Overall, they have kept us online fairly consistently.

We passed those storms along to you.
You're welcome.
BTW, we got some 90 MPH winds here. How were they there?

We had another interruption after I posted earlier, now connected again. Never dull.
Gus, as Babs said, some gusts maybe 40 or so, not sustained. No damage in our neighborhood, but I think some trees elsewhere fell to Nature's pruning hooks last night. Maybe why the erratic internet connection.
So, 90 mph? Everything is bigger in Texas, right?

It woke us up, but surprised me when I found out they were 90. Bent some metal signs over. Some big ones. And some trees that were really old and really big.
Since it was the same storm system, I was curious as to how bad it was by the time it got there.
