More than 1,000 properties were affected across Karaka, Kingseat, parts of Waiuku and Glenbrook, with Chorus and Tuatahi First Fibre both reporting disruptions on Sunday morning.
Chorus outage maps showed a broad broadband failure, while Tuatahi First Fibre described a major outage on its Auckland fibre network, indicating the disruption extended across multiple providers.
The outage left a swathe of South Auckland without internet service, affecting households and other users as providers monitored faults across the region.
