At Mahek Broadband, we do everything possible to ensure your internet runs smoothly and consistently.
However, during unexpected situations such as fiber cuts, power outages, or major network maintenance, your connection may experience temporary downtime.
While we don’t currently provide automatic secondary connections, we do offer multiple backup options and priority restoration support to minimize impact for our customers.
⚙️ 1️⃣ Understanding Downtime Situations
| Cause of Downtime | Example | Typical Duration |
|---|---|---|
| 🛜 Fiber Cut / Line Damage | Cable cut during construction work | 6–24 hours |
| ⚡ Power Outage at Network Hub | Transformer or local power fault | 1–6 hours |
| 🧰 Scheduled Maintenance | Network upgrades, backend updates | 30–60 minutes |
| 🌧️ Weather-Related Damage | Heavy rain, flooding, lightning | 12–48 hours (rare) |
💡 Our technical team actively monitors and restores affected areas as quickly as possible.
🧩 2️⃣ Current Backup & Support Options
🟢 1. Mobile Hotspot (Recommended Temporary Option)
During any brief downtime, you can connect your devices using:
- Your smartphone’s 4G/5G hotspot feature.
- Or a USB data dongle as an alternate network.
💡 Tip: Keep a low-data emergency SIM (Jio, Airtel, or VI) handy for such cases.
🔵 2. Router Dual WAN Setup (Optional)
If you use a dual-WAN router, you can configure:
- Primary WAN: Mahek Broadband (fiber PPPoE)
- Secondary WAN: 4G USB modem or mobile hotspot
The router will automatically switch to the backup network during downtime and revert once Mahek service resumes.
⚙️ Supported Routers:
TP-Link Archer Series (C6, C80, AX10), Tenda AC10, and other dual-WAN compatible routers.
