Internet Disruptions in Pakistan Due to Submarine Cable Fault
The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has issued an alert about internet disruptions in certain areas of Pakistan due to a fault in the global submarine cable SMW4.
The SMW4 cable is one of seven submarine cables that connect Pakistan to the global internet infrastructure. The PTA alert mentioned that this fault might cause slower internet speeds during peak hours.
Efforts are underway by an international company responsible for maintaining the cable. They are trying to locate the exact problem and carry out necessary repairs.
PTA is closely monitoring the situation and working to restore internet services as quickly as possible. Until the repairs are completed, users in the affected areas might experience intermittent connectivity issues.
