Connectivity of NIC.FUNET.FI

Inside Finland we have generally enough bandwidth but for international use we newer seem to have enough especially because of the popularity of NIC.FUNET.FI and lately also multimedia services like MBONE. Currently we handle most traffic via NORDUnet in collaboration with other Nordic countries. Line speeds are in the E1 (2Mbit/s) and T1 (1.5Mbit/s) range. For the next step upwards we hope for economical ATM connections at 34Mbit/s or higher which are currently only available for pilot use.
