Internet connection to resume on January 24

The repair of AAG (Asia Pacific Gateway) submarine optical cable will be one day longer than scheduled, the system operator has announced.
According to the latest notice of the AAG operator sent to Vietnamese internet service providers, the repair began on January 17 and will end on January 28. However, internet connection between Vietnam and the world will resume on January 24.
Earlier, on January 8, the operator said the repair would be completed on January 23.
The AAG submarine cable was cut at 8:04 am on January 5, at a point about 117km from the landing station in Vung Tau.  
 

 
While waiting for the repair, FPT Telecom has used land cables to forward traffic from the broken cable segment in order to minimize the impact of the incident.
Viettel has adjusted interconnection capacity through the pan-Asian fiber-optic cable and the land cable to China Telecom and China Unicom.
Also, from January 10, Viettel will include an additional 80Gbps for the route to Hong Kong and Singapore.
Earlier in 2014, the cable was cut in July and September and it took two weeks to resolve the issue.
AAG, one of Vietnam’s four submarine cables, is the largest one. There are a number of possible reasons for the breakdown, including the travel of ships or shark bites.
