Russian internet provider Nodex reported on Tuesday that its network had been ruined in a cyberattack, which it suspects originated from Ukraine.
In a statement on the Russian social media platform VKontakte, the St. Petersburg-based company said the “planned” attack “destroyed” its infrastructure overnight. Nodex added that it was working to restore systems from backups but could not provide a timeline for when operations would fully resume.
“Our priority is to restore telephony and the call center first,” the company stated.
In an update on Wednesday, Nodex announced that it had restored its DHCP server, which assigns IP addresses and network settings to devices. “Many people should now have internet access. Please restart your routers,” the company advised.
Data from the internet monitoring service NetBlocks shows that Nodex’s connectivity collapsed at midnight on Tuesday, affecting both fixed-line and mobile services.
