Re: Provider credibility - does it matter? was Re: Inter-provider relations

Yes it is already changing. But as far as I can see, Global SprintLink represents the old US-centric model: GSL is the international arm of SprintLink and essentially sells bandwidth into the States. C&W is setting itself up as a global backbone provider.

GSL offers both IPL and POP accesses, and participates local-exchange within country/reginal POPs. US-centric model is juct matter of economy and tariff between countries. If someone is willing to pay more to run a DS-3 from Taiwan to Japan instead, I am sure there is no reason for GSL to reject the order. - jian
