CHTTL is the Telecommunication Laboratory of ChungHwa Telecom 
(Taiwan). The Laboratory is one of the members of Taiwan's brand new 
National BroadBand Experimental Network Project (NBEN). NBEN was 
initiated by National Science Council, Taiwan's counterpart to NSF. 
Taiwan has connected its advanced academic network, TAnet2, to the 
STAR TAP at 15 Mbps.  They also connect in California (TAnet) at 30 
Mbps, the remainder of the T3 from Taiwan.  TAnet and ChungWha 
Telecom cooperate in NBEN.  NSF applauds their desire to participate 
in IPv6 development and diffusion.  NSF would be happy to have then 
make their 6Bone connection via STAR TAP, but we are neutral to the 
choice of STAR TAP or California.

If you need more information about CHTTL, please contact:
