Unless a thunderbolt strikes through the ground on the cable

Not all cable lines are in the ground but they arent easy to interrupt neither, a tree could fall on them and still internet run, as long as the cable isnt severed

and, since its called a NET, it must happen to the cable right in front of your house. otherwise, you'd just use another cable.
