I hope ISP's stand together and don't peer with "T". That way all "T" customers will have slow internet connectivity to all NZ sites and make "T" purchase a line into those content providers.
No it won't. It will have TCL customers ringing content providers saying their servers are slow or broke. 2day.com already has a commitment to peer with as many access providers as possible, but we can't close our eyes and let traffic from TCL (or TCNZ) customers traverse an international path to reach our Takapuna Beach data centre. Unless our current International circuits to TCL will continue to deliver domestic transit (there seems to be an internal argument over that) we will forced to buy their new domestic product at whatever price they demand. regards -- Peter Mott Chief Enthusiast 2DAY INTERNET LIMITED http://www.2day.com "Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something!"
