            ********************************************
A 64 kbps link was established between Costa Rica dnd the NSF/Sprint/PanAmSat
POP in Homestead [FL] yesterday, connecting CRNet (AS2146) to the Internet.

[So far,] CRNet's routes were announced to Alternet, SprintLink, 
Suranet, EBONE (portions of Europe), PSI, portions of Japan, and Ecuador.
NSFNET routing will not be activited until Friday morning, when NSFNET
updates its route configurations.

            ********************************************
[N.B., Ecuador's ECUAnet has already been attached to Homestead and configured
in the NSFNET tables.  Stay tuned for other Latin American connections via
Homestead in the next few weeks.   Welcome, CRNet! --SG]

Un canal de 64 kbps fue establecido ayer entre Costa Rica y el POP de
NSF/Sprint/Panamsat en Homestead, interconectando CRNet (AS 2146) a la
Internet.

Las rutas de CRNet fueron propagadas hacia Alternet, SprintLink, Suranet,
EBONE (parte de Europa), PSI, parte de Japon y Ecuador. El enrutamiento
asociado con NSFNet no estara activo hasta el viernes en la manana, cuando
NSFNet actualice sus rutas.
