ISLAMABAD: On Tuesday, following a brief outage, internet connections were restored nationwide.
Although the cause of the momentary loss of internet connectivity could not be determined, sources close to the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) told Geo News that it was possible that a malfunction in the submarine cable was to blame.
According to industry sources, the outage seems to be an internal issue with the telecom company.
Note that PTA and telecom operators are in charge of lifting the internet suspension.
Users of the internet service provided by Pakistan Telecommunication Company Ltd. also reported the outage as documented on Downdetector, an online resource that provides real-time data on a variety of websites and services.
