If you were dreading a Zoom call with your boss today (15 Apr) and it miraculously never happened, you may just have StarHub to blame — or thank.
The local Internet service provider took to Facebook to inform their customers that their WiFi may have been affected due to technical difficulties.
Thankfully, StarHub are currently working on resolving the issue.
According to StarHub, they experienced a “fault” with their equipment this morning.
They responded by encouraging customers to refresh their data and WiFi connection.
Unfortunately, the problem seemed to drag on into the afternoon.
Several customers informed StarHub that they were still facing difficulties with their WiFi on their Facebook page.
