However, mobile internet will remain suspended, the Home Department said in a notification.
"Connection will be only through static IP and the subscriber concerned shall not accept any other connection other than allowed for the time being [TSP/ISP shall be held responsible for non-compliance of this condition]," it said.
"No Wifi Hotspots shall be allowed from any of the routers and systems using the connection at any cost by the subscriber concerned," it said.
The Manipur government has considered the suffering of the people as the internet ban affected offices and institutions, and people working from home, besides mobile recharge, LPG cylinder booking, payment of electricity bills, and other online services, the order said.
It said the suspension on broadband internet has been lifted in a liberalised manner, subject to fulfilment of several terms and conditions.
