Remote BIM Server Access Speeds

[Anonymous]

I am interested in allowing our employees and consultants access to our BIM server to work from remote locations. Is anyone really successfully doing this at this time? What kind of internet data speed is required? How are you handling large file sizes?

We have a project file that is almost 1 gb in size. Can you effectively work remotely on a project of that size without killing the productivity when sending and receiving?

Thanks,

Brian

on a side note, I remember living in Durban, ZA few years ago some one sent a pigeon with a flash memory from Durban to Pietermaritzburg, and at the same time sent the same file by mail or something...
The winner?
... not the computer.

I've posted a poll on this issue (resuming the download of a TW file if the connection is lost mid-way) which I believe is an important requirement for GS to incorporate into teamwork -
