NSFNET was a program of coordinated projects sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) from 1985 to 1995 to promote advanced research and education networking in the US. It evolved from a network of supercomputing centers to a major part of the Internet backbone, using TCP/IP protocols and various speed links.

NSFNET was the first network available to every researcher, connecting academic computers to supercomputer centers and becoming the U.S. internet backbone. Learn how NSFNET laid the foundation for the internet's explosive growth and how NSF continues to support networking research and services.
The National Science Foundation Network (NSFNET), developed to help U.S. research scientists collaborate, was a crucial link between ARPANET and the commercial networks that served as the early public internet’s foundation.
25 lip 2003 · NSFNET went online in 1986 and connected the supercomputer centers at 56,000 bits per second--the speed of a typical computer modem today. In a short time, the network became congested and by 1988 its links were upgraded to 1.5 megabits per second.
