Part of QWK.Net's mission for total technical competence is keeping the
service as fast as possible. To this end, we've arranged outstanding
Internet connectivity to get your site delivered at top speeds. You'll
find that we earn our name.
QWK.Net utilizes the services of several major Tier 1 backbone providers.
The major features of our connectivity include:
- Direct ethernet connections to edge routers on providers' networks.
Thanks to our office location, we are connected via 100Mbit fast ethernet to our upstream providers. This
eliminates the need to rely on sometimes-problematic telco local loops.
- Multiple major carriers. Connections can be routed through several
major carriers, improving performance and ensuring that an outage at one
carrier will not impact your site service.
- Over 200 private and public interconnect agreements in place, including all major providers.
This reduces the necessity for traffic
to flow through crowded public access points.
- Public NAPs are specifically
avoided. This ensures that traffic to and from your site isn't bogged down
in the mass of traffic often present at these public access points.
- Capacity is increased when average traffic load reaches 60% capacity;
no circuit is allowed to be oversold.
Overall, these factors combine to bring you some of the fastest network
connectivity possible. If you have questions regarding specific details of
QWK.Net's connectivity, please don't hesitate to
mail us and ask.
