In case customers have difficulty accessing, please contact Viettel via switchboard 18008119 to find out the exact cause and provide the fastest support. A representative of VNPT said that immediately after the above incident, VNPT carried out load balancing, redirected connections to other undersea cable routes as well as a number of land cables to ensure the quality of services provided to them. customer. “We navigate and load other cable directions that are operating stably such as CSC, AAG, IA, SMW3”, a VNPT representative said. According to CMC Telecom, this unit has also increased capacity through the cable direction across Southeast Asia (A-Grid), connecting the internet from Vietnam to Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore to ensure supply. provide stable service to customers during the incident as well as the process of repairing and overcoming…
