Can you explain "something to do with the area"? Do you mean that you are aware of some local ISP problem?
ISP service may have been restored but may not be up to full performance yet. May get back to full performance as final repairs and corrective reconfigurations are made.
Likewise you may need to check your router and network to ensure that everything is properly configured correctly and allow some time for everything to get back to normal.
We just had a two hour outage in our neighborhood. Reasons unknown and probably will not be known.
