    The goal of this research is to understand if the supplied internet speed at UFMT/CUR and UFR is enough for the suitable progress of scientific studies. The internet link speed available for faculty and students was explained through examining documents and the bibliography regarding existing contracts, available internet speed, internet data consumption, alongside with national and international internet speed standards for research and education institutions. Through a Scientometric study in the Web of Science and Scopus database, the terms “Federal University of Mato Grosso” and “Rondonópolis” were employed conjointly, bounded to the period from 2004 to 2019. Thereby, it was possible to analyze the scientific production growth, comparing if an internet speed bellow national and international standards would reduce the number of published papers on those databases. Furthermore, we evaluated if internet usage policies at UFMT/CUR and UFR could contribute to a qualified internet use, avoiding access of unsuitable or unrelated content to Education, Research and Extended Learning, impairing browsing for institutional and, mainly, research subjects. For that purpose, we executed a documental and bibliography research regarding the existence of such policies in these institutions, concluding that they do not exist. By finishing the data analysis, it was possible to answer the following question: is the existing internet link enough to meet the UFR research demand? Though the internet velocity delivered to the 5.000 students reaches 300 Mbps, adding up all existing contracts, we observed that the national standard, of 1,000 Mbps, as well as the international standard, of 5,000 Mbps, were not achieved. However, the average consumption for all administrative, education and research activities did not exceed the speed of 150 Mbps, highlighting that, even though the available internet is not considered adequate, the existing access velocity met the demand of UFMT/CUR and UFR. Moreover, there was not a reduction on research production, instead, when compared to the Scientometric survey, the number of publications kept growing exponentially, year after year.
