Slow internet likely till Thursday

The administration is obtaining 40 Gbps transmission capacity from France to compensate for impermanent transfer speed shortage yet deficiency will at present remain.

The Bangladesh Submarine Link Organization Restricted (BSCCL) is purchasing the data transmission to address the hole amongst request and supply, caused by the three-day interference in the operation of the primary submarine link.

Amid this shutdown, which started early Tuesday, the country is set to encounter a shortage of 230 Gbps (gigabyte every second) data transfer capacity.

In this way, network access suppliers say, web speed will be moderate in spite of the fact that authorities assert there will be no issue in availability.

The second submarine link (Ocean ME-WE-5) is contributing 110 Gbps, yet the nation still has a shortage of 80gpbs data transfer capacity, concurring authority records.

The month-long manage France, done by means of US firm Apt, costs the BSCCL $20,000 (Tk 1.6 million).

"So guaranteeing continuous web won't be an issue," said BSCCL overseeing executive Mashiur Rahman.

In any case, network access suppliers say the speed of web will be slower these three days. Accordingly, general clients will endure. IT associations that rely upon fast web will endure the most.

"Web resembles oxygen these days. On the off chance that the web speed gets backed off, it influences the entire day's yield. The greater part of the things we do, particularly staying in contact with the remote customers, are dependent on online mists," said Shafiul Alam, CEO of Blancer, an online commercial center.

BSCCL information appears the nation has a day by day request of 470 Gbps transmission capacity.

The two submarine links add to 270 Gbps while the staying 200 are transported in from India through the Global earthbound link (ITC).
