There has been a fibre cable cut on the Main One. This is affecting Glo mainly but it is also affecting other service providers like iPNX. Glo doesn't have a line through SAT-3 and thus it's services are very much degraded.

Let's hope they get it fixed soon.

Thats to show how f/uckin glo is dependent, i guess they are getting hooked up from the US, cos there seems to be a shutdown of cyberspace today in America due to malicious malware...fu/ck imagine they still have a long way to go.

Re: Total Internet Blackout On Glo Network by bernieamce: 10:37pm On Jul 09, 2012
what are their technical engineers doing? Why are they called professionals? I thought they use to have regular system upgrade, total shotdown shoudn't happen in a big company like glo that has been in operation four more than half a decade. Nonetheless i hope they bounce back quickly less they loose their suscribers.

To all the Etisalat fanboys FYI Etisalat is useless in my area. As much as I hate MTN they are the most reliable for browsing on my android. So I have stuck with them. The glo in my sim 2 is only for calling

Ur statement is TOTALLY WRONG. I dont know if u r talking out of ignorance or mischief. But the FACT is Glo has a fiber cut on her submarine cable (GLO ONE) abt 8kM frm the shore where there cable landed. MAIN ONE cable has no fiber cut. There is no way MAIN ONE cable will hv a fiber cut and it will affect only Glo. Mind u almost all ISP (Swift, Cyberspace, Spectranet etc) n GSM coys (MTN, Etisalat, Airtel) n CDMA coys (Starcomms, Visafone, Multilinks, Mobitel etc) in 9ja r riding on MAIN ONE cable.

Thank you
