Proven Network
As Thailand's first commercial ISP, Internet Thailand has constantly
sought to lead the way in the provision of Internet services. In
particular, the company has not only consistently provided higher
international and domestic bandwidth, but has also managed this
bandwidth with reliable redundant network architecture.
Internet Thailand has gradually been expanding its network under
the concept of an "IT Cluster" which connects multiple
major organizations in both the government sector and private sector
together by MetroLAN, Internet Thailand's robust and reliable broadband
network - providing seamless access to content hosted on Internet
Thailand's backbone. Moreover, because of Internet Thailand's
large corporate customer base, it currently manages almost half
of all Thailand's routable IP addresses. Therefore, with all stated
preferences, communication among the companies in this high reliability
network will truly bring you closer to other business entities.
Thus, companies residing in this powerful network will have the
potential to perform all their operations in this digital world
more efficiently.

NAC's Solution to the unreliable Internet:
NAC has paid careful attention to these problems with Network Access
Points when designing and implementing our network.
Equipment
NAC has made significant investments in equipment from major vendors
such as Cisco, Livingston, and 3Com/USR. We feel that using industry
leading equipment that has a proven track record is the best choice,
and well worth the extra expense.
Backbone Connectivity
Because of the proven unreliability of the NAPs and the backbones,
we have made connections to multiple backbone providers. This allows
us to easily reach remote networks even in the case where a NAP
may be unhealthy, or when a specific backbone connection is down.
It also allows us to make intelligent routing decisions. For example,
if we are trying to reach a remote network which is on the MCI network,
there's no reason to send it out to UU Net first.
Node Reliability
By placing our core nodes at places like MFS Telecom and Telehouse,
we are guaranteed a level of competent service. MFS employs a SONET
network, which essentially provides a dual-redundant, counter-rotating
ring technology, and in the event of a fiber cut, the SONET will
automatically heal itself. We also divide our circuits among several
telecommunications providers, such as Bell Atlantic, NYNEX, MFS
Telecom, and Teleport Communications Group.
Expertise
We invest a significant amount of time and money in our staff to
make sure that they are knowledgeable and are capable of helping
and handling our customers. A network is only as good as the people
who manage it.
Monitoring
The NAC staff is working around the clock to ensure that the network
is operating at optimum state. We continually review collected statistics
to watch for traffic trends so that we can react with the proper
routing adjustments and bandwidth addition.
Honesty
We are honest with our customers, and keep them informed of all
problems we're having (and, just as importantly, how to solve them).
We continually update our Outages and Upgrades page so that users
and customers are fully aware of all network situations.
