They have two channels: 2Mbit/s to teleglobe.net and 512kbit/s to cw.net. But they don't provide internet service to end-users (they are wholesale). > Is there much involvement in the public and education sector ? Number of end-users increased in last year at ARMINCO twice. Approximately same progress is at YERPHI. INFOCOM users number hasn't changed so much. ACC is new in internet and they have about 100-200 customers. There is project to connect all educational organisations to internet and this project is in progress.
