Thousand of cell phone and internet users across the North Island have lost access, thanks to Cyclone Gabrielle.
Gisborne, Hawke's Bay, and the Coromandel have been hit hard by a lack of reception, with Hawke's Bay experiencing a severe outage.

Paul Brislen explained that the cellphone towers and landlines themselves have been unaffected by the cyclone, but lack of power stops these outlets from running properly.
