My ISP has a 10Mbps fibre ATM circuit to BCNet in Vancouver that was installed in Aplril 1995. From there it connects to CA*Net which has a T3 into MCI Seattle as well as links to the East where more T3's head south to MCI. The T3's were T1's until Sept 1995 at which point there was a small improvement in speed at times.
So a 10Mbps fiber ATM circuit translates, after the cell tax and packet stredding, to 6Mbps on a real link. Is this not slow enough to be a bottleneck? regards, fletcher
