re: Gas stove and Ethernet cable fried after lightning struck tree in front yard

A year ago lightning struck my neighbors chimney. The bolt traveled through the fiber lines to our houses and took out a 1 month old living room tv, my router/modem, surround sound receiver, tv tuner…pretty much anything that was hardwired into my router.

Since then, I’ve had to replace a ceiling fan and about 10 led ceiling lights and need to get some more soon. Apparently those things are sensitive to strikes.
