How do your Ethernet providers connect your LANs to the internet? I mean, I guess you have a switch in each building, but what does that connect to? A central highspeed backbone switch or fibre connection or what (just curious).
I think each district (and maybe each building) is connected by an optical fiber. But this is a subject to change as provider has to upgrade infrastructure frequently. Early providers tried to avoid use of optics that's why Internet was so expensive(=good charge for low speed) then. In the last 3 years Internet became much cheaper, I think because of infrastructure upgrade. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
