      In Nizhny Novgorod, problems with mobile internet have been observed for the second day in a row. Residents are mass-posting complaints on VKontakte.

      According to the reports, disruptions began on January 11 and continue to this day. Many users note that they cannot connect even to apps from the so-called "white list," which are usually available during restrictions.

      Similar shutdowns have already occurred during the holidays. In particular, the internet went out on the night of January 1, and also periodically during the New Year holidays. At the same time, service in the city center is working well.

      Governor Gleb Nikitin has previously spoken about the situation. He urged citizens to remain calm and be understanding, noting that the restrictions are related to ensuring security from UAVs.

      Recall that in the Nizhny Novgorod region there is a map with free Wi‑Fi spots. It was created specifically for situations like this and allows users to find the nearest place with internet access. The map can be used even without a network connection.
