AS557 University of Maine System (@Networkmaine) has upgraded to 1x 100Gbps at @lumentechco 300 Bent Street. #Boston #ixp #peering #KeepTrafficLocal

Mark your calendars and stay tuned for agenda updates for the MANRS Routing Security Summit happening 17-20 July manrs.org/event/routing-…

yet again, like Maine’s BTOP “Three Ring Binder” network over a decade ago, this major fiber project idea owes much to the careful thought & steady guidance of @jeffletourneau & and his @Networkmaine team. Not everything done in the world has to be about maximizing profits!

We are thrilled to be partnering with MCA on this project. @MSLNStatus @NTIAgov #MooseNet #MaineREN #BroadbandForAll #Middlemile

We have created a new leadership position that will focus on our services to the University System. I'm really excited about the opportunity to bring in someone with operational experience and a customer focus. maine.hiretouch.com/job-details?jo…

.@Networkmaine, a unit of the University of Maine System, is seeking applicants for a Network Engineer I. Learn more at bit.ly/3wfjTbZ.

Just another way that an Internet Exchange can add value.... helping to keep traffic local. @Networkmaine we are pleased to have helped make this happen.

We've been awarded $1.0M from @NSF to light 2 400Gbps waves from UMaine to the @MGHPCC and the NoX GigaPoP w/ add/drop in Keene, NH & Portland, ME to interconnect with other northern New England research partners in the future. networkmaine.net/nsf-awards-nea…

Networkmaine is excited to share that teachers in Maine can participate in a virtual PD workshop this summer from the Presidential Libraries and @Internet2CAP for free! Learn more: bit.ly/3LHD303

Earlier this week we turned up a direct peer with @Amazon at @mass_ix. This peer brings greater resiliency and performance to Maine’s research and education community when accessing services hosted in Amazon's cloud. #aws #IXP #broadband

It has been awhile since we have posted to social media. Sorry about that. We've been busy installing a 100Gbps network throughout northern and downeast Maine while increasing the connectivity of over 800 K12 schools and public libraries to at least 1.0 Gbps.

Participating in an Internet eXchange brings great value. We've needed to triple our capacity in less than 4 years as we peer with more and more networks. Lower latency and greater diversity of routes creates stronger networks. Thanks @mass_ix

And they are so well connected to #broadband. Thank you @Networkmaine

Great opportunity to support #CommunityResilience in Maine @AARPMaine @connectmaine @growsmartmaine @Networkmaine @digitalequityct @islandinstitute

Don't miss our next regional #Telehealth Office Hour event co-hosted with @bistatepca & others on 8/4, as we're joined by Broadband experts from VT and ME for a conversation around tackling the #digitaldivide! Visit netrc.org/vermont.php or contact us for registration info!

Indeed. Why should taxpayer money build a service that is not what the private sector is claiming to do with its own cash? One of the reasons Maine just defined broadband as 100/100 service. brookings.edu/blog/techtank/…

Local, county, and state coordination and collaboration will be key to gaining the most from the federal ARPA funding. @MEBroadband & its co-hosts are convening BB stakeholders on June 25th @ 9am. Link below has more info along with how to register. networkmaine.net/regional-broad…

It is the 10th anniversary of World IPv6 Day, so the 9th anniversary of @WorldIPv6Launch! On June 6 of 2021, @Akamai served 8.3 million IPv6 requests over the course of a day. Today, Akamai serves many times that number of IPv6 requests *every second*.

"American households obviously believe broadband means 100 Mbps or faster" @connectmaine agrees with you today voting to define BB as 100/100 or faster! I thank my colleagues for joining me on this vote. Broadband Usage Still Strong 1Q 2021 – POTs and PANs potsandpansbyccg.com/2021/06/09/111…

@growsmartmaine is sponsoring the @PressHerald Policy Matters series, set of 4 moderated panel discussions having a significant effect on Maine’s future. Join us 3/23 @ 630 PM for “Broadband: Everyone needs it, why don’t we have it?” bit.ly/3brIwbD
