There was a failure in the MGTS network between 19.00 and 20.00 Moscow time, reports the website downdetector.com. There is no Internet in the southwest of Moscow, in particular in the Ochakovo-Matveevskoye area, users report on the forum of this site. According to them, there is also no access to the network in Perovo, Avtozavodskaya and in the Moscow region (in particular in Balashikha). MGTS is aware of the problems, as follows from the entry in the MGTS group in “VKontakte”. The situation is temporary and MGTS is doing everything possible to correct it, it says.

representative MGTS Tatyana Martyanova says that she is not aware of any large-scale problems. But some subscribers may have limited access to the Internet, she says.

According to Telecom Daily CEO Denis Kuskov, the problem may be related to a failure in the core of the company’s network. If we were talking about mechanical damage to the cable, even the main one, users would not complain about the lack of communication in remote areas of Moscow and the Moscow region, he believes.

According to Telecom Daily, MGTS is the largest wired Internet provider in Moscow. According to her data, the problems affected about 1.5 million subscribers of the provider. This is a large-scale failure that affected the north of Moscow; it did not affect the center and southern districts of the capital, Kuskov claims.
