from Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive · host Newstalk ZB
One New Zealand says a widespread internet outage this morning was caused by one of its technology partners. Ninety cell towers were taken down by technical problems - leaving some customers in the South Island and lower North without service or internet. The company says the outage began about 1:30 this morning and it took hours to be fully resolved. One NZ Chief Executive Jason Paris told Heather du Plessis-Allan that the issue was caused by a bug in one of their vendor's software. He says it tried to roll back the update it had made, but the bug didn't go away. The outage also affected 2 Degrees customers. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
