Zong network temporarily disrupted countrywide

LAHORE: Mobile data network operator Zong went down in major cities across the country on Wednesday afternoon.

The issue came to light after customers complained of slow browsing and being unable to make or receive calls on Twitter. Customers based in Lahore said that they were facing issues making calls, while others inquired if the signal issues were a result of maintenance work.

Users said that Zong WiFi devices were also malfunctioning.

Pakistan Today reached out to Zong, which confirmed that there had been a disruption in services.

“Due to unexpected commercial power outage, Zong network services were temporarily down in some areas; however, the power issue has been resolved and services have been restored, a spokesperson for Zong said.

    • Bro, actually there have install 4 Gensets, 1.25 MW each. And all Gensets are sink to each other. Unfortunately one genset gone problematic during operation. Load shifted to other 3 Gensets which cause other 3 Gensets over loaded. So all Gensets shut down and load shifted to battery banks.
      There was 5 rectifier power systems in the equipment room from which one system gone shutdown due to weak battery bank issue. While other rectifier systems keep working. The system which shut down was providing power to major IT servers which cause this huge problem in network.

  9. This is how Pakistan ISPs providing service, these challenges matter a lot, can drag down the economy, Obviously I was not able to complete my work today, even code(software program) is not uploading to the serve and we are telling our foreign clients that we are facing internet issues. This is how we grow. Feeling sick for Pakistan ISPS. even JAZZ is not bearing the load and giving poor results. Or saly bolty hain OOKLA sy award mil gya, load bear ni kr pa ry.

  10. I made free Zong calls today when I got a messege of Zong network got hacked. I haven’t used my Zong sim for 2 years but today I made unlimited calls. This is how to get back your money from these looters.
