Bangladesh’s internet connectivity was restored to its full capacity at 2:00pm on Sunday.
A fault in a submarine cable on April 14 resulted in Bangladesh losing all its internet communication with countries to the west of the cable including Europe.
The fault was repaired by Mango Teleservices Limited, an International Internet Gateway operator in Bangladesh. The company said in a press release the problem was detected in the cable between Alexandria and Marseilles.

A senior official at the BTCL’s submarine cable project had told bdnews24.com on April 15 that a short circuit at the Italian landing station at Palermo had caused the problem.
On December 21, 2008 Bangladesh faced a similar kind of connectivity disruption, which was restored after 18 hours.
