The West African Cable System (Wacs), which suffered a break in January, has broken again.
According to an advisory issued by internet service provider Afrihost on Saturday, South African internet users may experience increased latency and slow downloads from international servers and websites due to damaged undersea cables.
“We’re working to restore service on alternate paths,” said Afrihost before apologising for any inconvenience.
Various internet users had taken to social media on Saturday morning to file complaints about lagging internet speeds with their respective ISPs.
