Demos got their international UUCP connection only in 1990. In 1989 they were playing with Moscow-only UUCP network. Everything was dialup based.

In 1991 they played with local TCP/IP in Moscow, in 1992 started to make dialup calls to Finland with SLIP instead of pure UUCP. Only in 1993 several permanent TCP/IP links from Russia (Demos, SOVAM Teleport, etc) to the West were finally established.
