The speed of a connection to the Internet is governed largely by need and budget. Remember that the bandwidth available to clients has a large impact on the bandwidth required by an Internet server.
In intranet-only cases, the available bandwidth is limited by the network. If more bandwidth is needed, the network must be upgraded or, in the case of shared-resource networks (Ethernet, for example), it must be broken into subnets. Some servers have two or more network interfaces. This is the case, for example, if a Web server is connected to a database server via a private network. Different interfaces need not necessarily run at the same speed.
