Styx 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2005 I've just moved to Pakistan, and the internet all over the country has gone down supposedly. i heard that somehow the submarine cable got cut, but it's been a week and they're taking so freaking long to repair it, if that's the problem. i can't access my personal site, yahoo, Gmail, basically Xisto and a couple other sites are the only ones that work. why, oh why, does a country only have a single internet cable? it's insane! I haven't been able to check my mail since then and god only knows how long it'll be before it's back up. No news available here on how long it'll take. Has anyone heard anything more about it?

The cable has to have major repairs and actually needs to be removed and then repaired. Sorry about your troubles, I hope it will be fixed soon! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
