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.

When was the last internet outage in Guam?

The latest recorded event in Guam started on 17 Oct 2026 17:30 UTC and lasted 9.2 h. The signal dropped by 53% at its lowest point.

Which internet providers are watched in Guam?

GeoCables watches the leading providers of Guam: GTA (29.2%), IT&E (PTI Pacifica) (24.6%), Guam Cablevision (20.4%), Guamcell (14%), Starlink (9%). The share is the part of the country's internet users served by the provider.

Which submarine cables connect Guam?

Guam is connected by 19 submarine cables in the GeoCables database, among them Apricot, Asia Connect Cable-1 (ACC-1), Asia-America Gateway (AAG) Cable System, Atisa. 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.
