Telecom to deliver traffic to their customers. Telecom never actually said they would not peer, they just avoided the question for over a year ( and sighted vague "legal issues" that they never expanded on ) I think everyone here would know Alan Mitford-Taylors "I'll check that out and get back to you" line. Now it turn's out that not only are they connected at APE but they are actually passing traffic somewhere ! This confirms that Telecom is deliberately giving its downstream customers a lower level of service than its own ISP ( remember Xtra is peered on WIX and APE without any issues at all )
Xtra does not peer with NetGate. They're an upstream of ours.
That's a fairly fine line your walking there. Careful you dont trip. Cheers. James Tyson --- Samizdat New Media Solutions --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
