"Revision 7 (8/3/2006) " That now explains why they were talking about ATM exchanges and DS3 international links... Speaking of Frontier peering... does anyone have a contact over there? They haven't responded to my e-mail. I didn't send more than one (I think) because I didn't want to be annoying. Some may call that an impossible task. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Adam Rothschild" <asr@latency.net> To: "Christopher Morrow" <morrowc.lists@gmail.com> Cc: nanog@nanog.org Sent: Monday, August 3, 2015 1:37:11 PM Subject: Re: [BULK] Verizon exiting California An additional advantage for Frontier customers, post acquisition: http://ipadmin.frontier.com/bilateralpeering_policy.pdf http://www.verizonenterprise.com/terms/peering/ $0.02, -a On Mon, Aug 3, 2015 at 2:12 PM, Christopher Morrow <morrowc.lists@gmail.com> wrote:

I ran a few Google searches and came across a trove of complaints against Frontier. Seems they are far worse than GTE/Verizon. On the few occasions I have called for FIOS support, always reached someone knowledgeable and helpful. Not looking forward to the changeover, as the new owners have to pay off debts from their acquisition. That can only be accomplished through rate increases. I see a Verizon tech outside my kitchen window every two to three days as he replaces two nitrogen tanks keeping copper trunks pressurized against water intrusion.
though, on the positive side... maybe you'll see ipv6 on frontier fios before the heat death of the universe? (*which is when vz fios folk will see it, apparently).
