After working hard to get all the technical details right, we can announce that HBNI (AS31914) is the newest connected MBIX member.

They’re connected at 1 Gbps at the 167 Lombard location.  They’re peering with the route servers on IPv4, and working on full IPv6 peering in time.

HBNI serves Hutterite colonies throughout rural Manitoba, with a focus on education.  Having their network directly connected to MBIX will serve to increase the performance of this specialized ISP, and keep more data within Manitoba, lowering outside costs.
