There should be no reason that a I should need DS3 network from day one. I am fine with providers making me go to MAE-East, MAE-West, PACBELL, Ameritech, and Sprint NAP. I do have a problem with them saying this all needs to be connected via DS3. If it was say connected via frac DS3 or say MFS 10 meg service it should make no difference to the peers. Why should a new NSP pay for a DS3 when they need only 10 meg? Nathan Stratton CEO, NetRail, Inc.
