They get a 10 or 45Mbit connection from big six provider A. They get a 100Mbit connection at Nap B. They default all of their traffic at Nap B to Provider A's router at Nap B. This way they get [theoretically] up to 145Mbits into provider A's network and get the traffic back inside of provider A's network. What are the various opinions on this behavior?
