Internet connectivity at the time

Internet connectivity in China dropped 24 hours after this event, and stayed disrupted for about 3 hours.

From 05 Oct 2026 02:00 UTC to 05 Oct 2026 05:00 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.
