My college net seems to work fine here..
Yeterday there was little problem...
BTW the lines were cut in Egypt...why it's affecting us ?:confused:
moreover why it's affecting only certain countries and their ISP's...?:confused:
And most important thing is how they are going to repair..?:confused:
how they will find where the cable is broken..?:confused:
why they use cables for such a long distance..can't they use satellites or any other wireless ways..?:confused:

The cartoon was sooo cool. Rwllay funny :D

@adi007

Upload is a pain using satellite.
There are many cable networks. For example, it didn't affect Cochin (we have FLAG and another reaches here) while Mumbai / Pune affected severly - as the undersea cable is different there. That explains why some countries / secions affected most.

How the repair ? lol, good question. I was also thinking about that.

Cable damage nettles netizens
DH News Service, Bangalore:


Mails moved at a snail's pace in the IT City on Thursday, thanks to snags in Internet connectivity following damage to two undersea cables in the Mediterranean Sea.


Several Internet users in the City complained of slow browsing and cyber cafes faced connectivity problems. The problem, which surfaced in the wee hours of Thursday, continued till evening.
“Internet connectivity was poor as it was on and off for most part of the day before limping back to normalcy by around 8:30 pm. The service providers put the blame on damage to undersea cables,” said Zulfikar, owner of an Internet parlour on Brigade Road.

The Internet Service Providers Association too confirmed that there wa Ts a slowdown and a 50 to 60 per cent cut in bandwidth.
