The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has announced the complete restoration of internet services nationwide.
According to a spokesperson for the PTA, the fault in the SMW4 submarine cable has been rectified. The issues with the SMW4 cable surfaced in June, while the AAE-1 submarine cable experienced faults in August. With the restoration of both cables, the previous shortfall of 1,750 Gbps has been resolved. The spokesperson stated that the internet is now fully operational at complete speed and capacity across the country.
To enhance connectivity, the PEACE cable has been integrated into the system this year. In the next two years, three additional cables will be added to improve connectivity: two from Transworld International and one from PTCL.
As the world moves beyond 5G technology, Pakistan continues to struggle with 4G connectivity challenges.
