Internet connectivity at the time

Internet connectivity in India dropped 18 hours after this event, and stayed disrupted for about 6 hours.

From 26 Sep 2026 13:30 UTC to 26 Sep 2026 19:00 UTC. Detected by Google service traffic.

Internet outages have many causes — damaged cables, power failures, network maintenance and deliberate shutdowns among them. IODA detects the loss of connectivity and does not attribute it to anything. This is shown because it happened at the same time, not because one caused the other.

Measured by IODA, Georgia Institute of Technology.
