Per-provider signals are measured when the country shows a deviation (and continuously for a few countries); «No data» means a separate per-provider measurement has not been needed recently. Share of users: APNIC estimate, scaled so that the providers of the country add up to 100%.
ℹ️ How to read this page
Operational - signal at normal levels for this country / provider
Degraded - signal dip ≥20% below its 24h baseline - partial outage or major disturbance
Major outage - dip ≥50% - large-scale loss of connectivity

“Signal dip” compares the current BGP-visibility and active-probing levels against the median of the previous 24 hours, corrected for global measurement artifacts (a worldwide simultaneous drop is ignored).

Data refreshes hourly. Per-ISP rows are measured in depth when the country shows an anomaly (pilot countries - continuously). The probable cause is a heuristic: an active fault on a submarine cable feeding the country ranks first, then routing signals, then power/access patterns.

Submarine cables feeding Brunei

If a national outage coincides with a fault on one of these systems, the cable is a likely cause - check its live page:

Asia Link Cable (ALC) Asia United Gateway East (AUG East) Asia-America Gateway (AAG) Cable System Labuan-Brunei Submarine Cable Southeast Asia-Japan Cable (SJC)

Internet in Brunei: questions and answers

Is the internet down in Brunei right now?

No. At the last check (21 Oct 2026 03:07 UTC) the internet in Brunei was working normally: the signal was at its usual level.

When was the last internet outage in Brunei?

The latest recorded event in Brunei started on 22 Sep 2026 10:30 UTC and lasted 40 min. The signal dropped by 35% at its lowest point.

Which internet providers are watched in Brunei?

GeoCables watches the leading providers of Brunei: UNN (98.6%). The share is the part of the country's internet users served by the provider.

Which submarine cables connect Brunei?

Brunei is connected by 5 submarine cables in the GeoCables database, among them Asia Link Cable (ALC), Asia United Gateway East (AUG East), Asia-America Gateway (AAG) Cable System, Labuan-Brunei Submarine Cable. A break on one of them can slow down or cut international traffic.

How does GeoCables detect an internet outage?

The status comes from two independent signals: routing announcements (BGP) and active probing of networks inside the country. A drop of 20% or more below the usual level of the last 24 hours is shown as degraded, a drop of 50% or more as an outage. See internet outages in all countries.
