WiMax wireless technology allows us to cover Internet users with direct visibility with our antennas. See map below.
WiMax connectivity allows us to reach costumers who have problems with Internet access based in traditional copper lines. On the other hand, Wimax allows us to offer symmetric bandwidth to costumers who need more upload capacity. You can see in price tables our wide variety of bandwidths and warranties. You can also consider Wimax connectivity as a backup connection to your copper lines Internet connectivity.

- IP fixa en TOTES les connexions professionals i SDSLs sense cost afegit.
- Múltiples ADSL’s i SDSL’s amb direccionament privat per connectivitat entre seus.
- Solucions de Firewall o de xarxa privada virtual (VPN) com els que teniu en aquest apartat
- Servei de helpdesk amb tècnics reals que us poden solucionar els problemes sense parlar amb contestadors.
It’s a clear distinction between the 2 types of fiber offered in the telecommunications market:
- The point-to-multipoint fiber used as an update of the ADSL service with FTTH technology is being deployed along the Catalan cities. GRN, hopefully, will be able to offer this service during the year 2014 in Girona.
- Point to point link with GRN using our own fiber or third parties. Using this method we can interconnect multiple sites together and give it more Internet traffic. Such connections require a custom project, please contact our technical department.

ADSL lines leverage the existing copper telephone wiring in homes of users to get an internet connection with a bandwidth significantly. Its technical basis is to pass voice and data through the same telephone line, passing data in a higher frequency than the frequency used in voice communications. Once the line reaches the user, it installs a filter to avoid any inconvenience in telephone conversations frequencies caused by the data.
One feature of ADSL lines is its asymmetry, so download and upload speeds are not the same. Download speed is always superior to upload speed, because ADSL technology is oriented to surfing the web.
VDSL lines are the evolution of ADSL lines with the feature of reaching 30Mbps over copper wires.
SDSL are technologically the same as ADSL lines, with the difference that in this case they are symmetrycal, so download and upload speeds are the same.
Nowadays, ADSL lines are the most common way to connect to Internet. Their lacks are:
- The lack of coverage in zones away from the telephony central. We can solve this lack using WiMax technology.
- Limit speed of copper lines has been reached, but the fiber optics Network called FTTH will make Internet advance to the next step of its evolution.

We have to check if the needed speed is available in a specific location, availability dependens on the distance to the telephony central and its technology. The connections marked with an asterisk are only available in the province of Girona.
You need a copper line to install an ADSL line, if the customer does not have any existing analog line will need to hire a copper line without telephone service which costs 10€ extra per month. In the case of ADSL lines outside the province of Girona always were mounted on a new copper pair, for this reason we have this fixed additional monthly cost.
GRN’s value added

GRN was born in 1995 with an infrastructure composed of a server and a Linux BBS, so our history with this operating system back to the very beginning and we think that has been the key to our success and the fact that we even exist as independent ISP.
This experience supports us as consultants in Linux and open source for all common issues that are usually used in the Internet world.
Today the range of devices that run Linux is huge, and it can be found at the enterprise level from file servers, database, web server with PHP and MySQL, mail servers, firewalls, proxies, routers, and a long etcetera.
The flexibility of this system is such that it reaches the point where your television with your internet or phone is very likely to be using the Linux kernel and some component of free software.
GRN can bring our experience to help you find the best solution in each case, as well as to integrate open source products in order to get a solution to your preference.
If you have a Linux server for some of the services you use, we can also make the maintenance of security updates, and any incident that may be causing problems to the system

The concept of cloud computing is used to describe a lot of new ways to use the resources that internet providers offer to our customers.
We believe that a good definition of cloud computing would be an infrastructure or a software platform that offers a service with the features of being multiplatform, on demand, scalable and ubiquitous. So, services are available from anywhere you have connection, easy to expand if necessary, usable on any platform and/or device with the important feature that we can forgot about the infrastructure that supports the service.
This service offered by GRN is a storage file system on the Internet in order to facilitate access from multiple devices or sharing between multiple users. The service is based on the standard WebDAV protocol. Using this protocol you can use any WebDAV client found on the network, and therefore it’s useable on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, etc …
The main risk of the cloud service offered by large companies that we don’t know where are our data, and we don’t know who will have access to them. In order to give a good answer to this, GRN is using software platforms that allow you to apply the cloud philosophies, but controlling where the data and its use. So you can have a complete infrastructure for your private use. Although there are many free products in cloud, you would think as @albertcuesta says “if you do not pay for something it means that you are the product.”
If you would like to synchronize the calendar and address book between multiple devices, maybe you would need our solution Zimbra.
[toggle title=’What is distributed cloud?’]
In other definitions, you can incorporate high availability in case of fail of a node as a cloud service feature. This means that the service provider not only has different geographically distant nodes, but also the service is designed in giving us more than one node and therefore never affect us a node fail. Obviously, GRN isn’t an international provider of services and we don’t have this feature, at the moment… 🙂

In both dedicated and shared modes, GRN can offer a reasonable price to meet your needs with a guaranteed quality of service.
GRN value added
- Possibility of a totally private system in GRN or your offices.
- Multiplataform support (Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS, …)
If you use iPhone or iPad you can find the Apple iOS OwnCloud client in iTunes. Or if you are using Android devices you have to go to Google Play.
Other services related to mobility or cloud in the mobility section or in online backups sections.
The needs of a particular or a company are more related to mobile devices than ever. GRN offers solutions for every problem that you may encounter.
We are not an operator of mobile connectivity and therefore we don’t provide Internet connection through 3G or UMTS, it is necessary to contract it directly with some of the larger operators in Spain o abroad. However, we can help with issues of integration and synchronization of mail, calendar and contacts between your mobile device and your desktop computer and to provide connectivity when you’re abroad with reasonable prices and no surprises.

A firewall is a device used in a computer network to control communications, allowing or blocking them according to the policies defined by the organization responsible for the network.
GRN can take care of the installation and configuration of firewalls, either by conventional solutions based on Zeroshell configurations or custom designed for special requirements. In addition to filtering traffic from the Internet, a firewall can do much more:
- Proxy service (transparent or not) for faster browsing.
- Whitelists and blacklists service to control user access to certain domains (eg facebook, twitter, etc…)
- Load balancing service between different connections to the Internet.
- Servei de backup entre diferents connexions a Internet per tal que si la vostra connexió principal deixa de funcionar passareu automàticament a la de reserva.
- Backup service between different Internet connections so that if your primary connection fails, the system automatically switches to the other one.
- VPN service with PPTP, IPSec or OpenVPN.
- Routing policy service to select the services that are used in different Internet connections.
Depending on the requirements needed, we have two different hardware platforms
For medium or small sized installations, we have a solution with 3 Ethernet ports. It is an embedded device called ALIX with 3 Ethernet connections and flash memory. Ideal as a firewall and VPN server in small-scale networks.
For large installations or when a proxy server functionality is required we use a device based on Intel Atom processor that has 2 Ethernet connections. The number of Ethernet ports can be expanded, so that we can have configurations with 2, 3, 4 and 6 Ethernets, all of them Gigabit and Intel chipset-based.
The device can work with disks or flash memories. If proxy service is needed, we recommend using disks, which can also be installed on RAID1.
In the case of a headquarter connectivity with various secondary offices, a good idea is to give the central Intel Atom based device and use the Alix device for delegations connectivity.
GRN’s value added
- We have ways of diagnosing complex problems on your network that cause poor performance such as viruses, download programs, etc. ..
- With our connectivity solutions that we can manage the installation in both ends by different technologies (wimax, adsl,…).
GRN offers remote backup for businesses and professionals. The aim is to outsource a backup of the company, protecting both transmission and storage. Remote backups of GRN fully comply with the applicable Spanish Law.
The software used for remote copy from Vembu Storegrid Software is compatible with all current platforms: Windows, Linux, MacOSX and FreeBSD.
The backup is stored in GRN data center in Girona and another replica for extra safety is made in Barcelona.
