Try Metrored, www.metrored.com. They are a company not too different from COLT. Regards, Neil.
Consider the following *hypothetical*:
Company X comes to believe that one of the best things it could do to achieve reliability on its circuits in Brazil is to reduce or eliminate its dependency on Telefonica for "last mile" support/provisioning. Are there any options available to such a Company? If so, which might be best: microwave, satellite, cellular, etc? Which vendors might be investigated and considered for these services? Any difference between VPN and point to point circuits? If you were goign to build a large scale web presence in Brazil...what's your top list of possible circuit providers? Reliability is valued over cost. I guess to put the query in nanog mailing list terms.....who could I go with to ensure I'm a good BGP neighbor in Brazil?
I know some may find the above humorous since if you insert Verizon, BellSouth, etc in place of Telefonica...the hypothetical may not change much. :-) No offense to the Bells...when I pick up the phone 99.999% of the time I have dial tone--which I appreciate. :-) But it costs $$$...
Thanks!
