Nepal experienced a brief but significant degradation in internet connectivity on Tuesday morning, lasting approximately 30 minutes. The disruption, which began around 06:20 UTC, primarily affected network reachability across the country’s IPv4 address space.
Technical Details
The event recorded a severity score of 994. The primary affected metric was the ping-slash24 signal, which measures ICMP reachability across IPv4 /24 network prefixes. This signal showed a 34% drop from its peak value during the observation period. Other network telemetry, including BGP control plane visibility and traffic volume forecasts, remained stable and did not indicate a broader routing or systemic failure.
The cause has not been publicly attributed. Connectivity was reported restored by 06:50 UTC.
