The National Science Foundation’s (NSF) NSFNET Program (partially) funded a range of (academic) regional networks1, starting in 1985/86. Over a relatively short period of time, the regional networks developed their customer base and funding models and became Internet service providers (ISPs). Connections to the Federal Internet Exchange(s) (FIXs) and the Commercial Internet eXchange(s) (CIXs) were developed, and some of the regional networks evolved to become global ISPs.</p>
