More news   Saunalahti is upgrading the VOAS-network during next summer. Saunalahti is upgrading the VOAS-network during next summer. This will bring new and faster 1/1 Mbps connections to all users. Upgrading the speed involves changing some of the equipment in the network. This will result in short outages on the network. We will try to keep the outages to a minimum. Visit the www.voas.fi website for accurate information on the timetable. Changes coming with the improvement - Faster connection - No more logging in to open the connection - Networks fault tolerance will improve Faster connections will mean doubling the bandwith for each user. We will prepare for this by upgrading the core network capacity considerably to ensure that the connections will not jam. No more logging into the network means easier opening of the connection, no time-outs and no registration to use the network. This helps to ease the use especially during the move in to the apartment, since the connection can be used immediately. Fault tolerance will be improved by new and improved network topology. All the routers and switches are already monitored but after this improvement, this will be easier and more automatic. we can also take action to small jams in the network. This should result in better usability of the network. We strive for bringing even faster connections available for additional cost. At least a section of the network will be networked with fiber-optics and in these areas, we will be able to provide even 10 Mbps connections by the end of the summer. The timetable in short, to be specified later: - In June the network will be modernized (some outages expected) - In July the 1/1 Mbps connections will be available to all users - In August the faster connections can be ordered in some parts, at least Palosaari Saunalahti Group Oyj More networknews
