Path: utzoo!telecom-request Date: Sat, 15 Jun 1991 14:27 CDT From: Arun Baheti Newsgroups: comp.dcom.telecom Subject: Summary: India Data Link Message-ID: Organization: TELECOM Digest Sender: Telecom@eecs.nwu.edu Approved: Telecom@eecs.nwu.edu X-Submissions-To: telecom@eecs.nwu.edu X-Administrivia-To: telecom-request@eecs.nwu.edu X-Telecom-Digest: Volume 11, Issue 458, Message 6 of 10 Lines: 39 I recently posted an article to TELECOM Digest requesting information on data links to India, preferably internet. I received approximately 20 responses with possible solutions, and about another 20 requesting copies of the information. I want to thank all of you who replied. I was surprised by the number of people who share my interest. A summary with the most practical solutions last, minus credits and duplications to save space (and Patrick's eyes), follows: o Working out an arrangement with ERNET, the commercial/ educational network run by the government. A contact for information and site lists there is anil@shakti.ernet.in This would be a high cost (but ideal) solution. If, however, you have a friend at one of these sites... o The National Center for Software Technology in Bombay maintains an Internet link which you may be able to access. o There is a magazine called "Telematics India" and another called "Asia Technology" that might help. o Two Telebit Trailblazer error correcting modems. o MCI Mail; contact Atoosa Rezai <0004538383@mcimail.com> for information regarding MCI Mail to India. o US Sprint Mail; contact 800-767-4529 for information. Our contact there is J. Keith Higgins, but you should be able to get information from anyone. My thanks again to all who replied. Please keep me posted of any new information you come accross.
