Internet services across Pakistan have been disrupted once again, with users experiencing slow speeds and connectivity issues nationwide.

According to an official statement issued by Nayatel, the disruption is due to an outage affecting one of its upstream internet providers, which has resulted in degraded performance across a significant portion of the country’s internet traffic.

In a post shared on its official platform, Nayatel confirmed that national internet performance has deteriorated because one of its two upstream providers is currently facing technical issues. As a result, a large volume of internet traffic across Pakistan has been impacted.

What Nayatel Said

Nayatel stated that its technical teams are closely monitoring the situation and are in continuous coordination with the upstream provider to restore services as soon as possible.

However, the company did not provide a timeline for full restoration, leaving users uncertain about when normal internet services will resume.

Users Report Widespread Impact

Reports from multiple cities suggest that the disruption has affected:

  • Browsing speeds

  • Video streaming services

  • Online gaming

  • Remote work and online education platforms

The outage has caused frustration among users, especially as this is not the first nationwide internet disruption in recent months.

No ETA Yet

As of now, authorities and service providers have not confirmed the exact cause of the upstream failure or an estimated time of resolution. Users are advised to remain patient as efforts continue to stabilize the network.
