Hi There,
I am looking for carriers who offer peering in Latin America (Specifically Costa Rica). So far the only carrier in Costa Rica who I have been able to find that does this is ADN (American Data Networks, www.data.cr). While they are already on my list for a quote, we need at least one other diverse connection, so I would appreciate if anyone else would be able to help me find other carriers who operate here? Here's who i've contacted so far:
RACSA - Can't get past 1st level support (they don't know what BGP is) ICE - Tried contacting a person who's address I was previously given from NANOG to no avail Global Crossing - Said they contacted an engineer who would get back to me, mailed them 4 times since to no avail (no bounced emails either). Level 3 - Apparently don't operate in Latin America AT&T - Want us to have a minimum of 3 locations in the US to peer with first
So far ADN are the only carrier who have actually been of any help. Quick Googling for "BGP Peering Latin America" and "BGP Peering Costa Rica" and several variations thereof is not yielding any fruitful results.
Thanks and regards,
Ken
