Tell me, what can you offer me? Here are my immediate purchasing qualifications:
- 100Mbps - space in Torix - optic, from Toronto, Ontario to Cobourg, Ontario (55 miles) - gear at both ends
We pay ~$2500 for the fibre and the bandwidth. Get me a deal. I am not the money man. I don't even want to deal with money. I can't vote with money, as it's not mine. Believe me, if I could vote with money, I'd be 100% HE.
You said business class DSL before, now you're saying 100Mbps. There are many dozens of providers who will speak BGP with you in 151 Front, you should have absolutely no trouble finding one to buy from at attractive prices. Your best bet is to unbundle the backhaul from the transit, that way you have flexibility to buy bandwidth from who you would like without being tied to the specific network providing the backhaul. But you said "gear on both ends", which implies that you have something in Toronto already? At any rate this is completely and totally off topic for NANOG, but if you say the words "I'd like to buy 100Mbps of service with BGP in Toronto" I'm sure you'll be swarmed with offers. -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras@e-gerbil.net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC)
