In the framework of the Giga CARNet project, in February 2004 CARNet was enabled, through the connection to the GÉANT network, to have a twice-faster connection to similar academic and research networks in Europe and all over the world (at the speed of 1.2 Gbit/s instead of the former 622 Mbit/s).
U okviru projekta Giga CARNET CARNET-u je u veljači 2004. godine omogućeno da preko spoja na mrežu GÉANT bude dvostruko brže povezan sa sličnim akademskim i istraživačkim mrežama u Europi i svijetu (brzinom od 1.2 Gbp/s umjesto dosadašnjih 622 Mbp/s).
