Dennis, I had a similar experience last August. We took two nearby
lightning strikes 20 days apart. Lost a lot of equipment, but all damage
seemed to come through the Comcast Xfinity cable (copper, not fiber). As
part of the recovery, I had a Comcast tech come to the house. He discovered
that my cable ground was loosely attached to a painted surface. He removed
that one and put on a more substantial one directly to a ground rod.
If you have 2 (or more) ground rods, not bonded together, you are still screwed.
Please read K9YC's link, or watch N0AX's CTU presentation on this subject.
