The problems besetting telecoms operator Elisa's broadband Internet operations continued into Monday morning. Tens of thousands of broadband connections across the country were affected by blackouts.
An Elisa spokesman said the problems had been fixed by mid-morning, but there were isolated disturbances until around lunchtime.
All of Elisa's fixed broadband links went down on Sunday at around 16:00 as servers were damaged. Monday's difficulties were a knock-on effect of the earlier outage, as servers thought to have been fixed later on Sunday were unable to cope with the increased Monday morning demand.
Sunday's cut affected users across the entire country and at its worst the blackout caused the broadband links of 520,000 customers to go down.
This morning's difficulties also indirectly affected the publication of the International Edition, as articles could not be put into the Helsingin Sanomat editorial system by remote editors.
