I lost my Internet connection at about 6.00pm local time yesterday, and according to my logs Internet was restored at about 2.30am today.

This morning I tried to ping some sites and the speed is good. Has the submarine cable been fixed already?

There are no particular announcement about restoration of the International link in TMNET’s website yet, though.
