If you are facing slow internet speeds in Pakistan then you aren't alone. Almost whole of Pakistan — including 3G users — are impacted with slow internet speeds due to a fault that is developed in SEAMEWE4, one of the the major submarine cables that connect Pakistan with rest of the internet.
One of our Submarine Cables (SMW4) has developed a fault. Location has been identified and team is working on restoring the connectivity.
Sources said that complete restoration of SEAMEWE4 could take a couple of weeks, and until then the bandwidth reliance on back-up submarine cables will be enhanced. During this, internet users may face degraded download/upload speeds.
