Re: [WISPA] T1 bandwidth pricing
Now this is very interesting, I never realized that there were still a lot of congested routes in the USA The impression of most people outside the USA is that there is generally excess capacity on all routes but I guess the dynamics for OC3 link capacity are quite different from T1 capacity, the US rates are about 20% the European average for OC3 capacity and even lower for 10Gbps Femi On Sat, Aug 1, 2009 at 8:32 PM, Robert West robert.w...@just-micro.comwrote: T1 pricing here in this area, Central Ohio, is just under $800.00 for one point of the route with ATT including internet access.

Re: [WISPA] T1 bandwidth pricing
T1 pricing here in this area, Central Ohio, is just under $800.00 for one point of the route with ATT including internet access. The VPN and equipment is your own doing once it gets to their demarc, at least that's my take on dealing with them. The thing with being between cities, however I was a network install manager for Qwest in a former life.. The cost to the provider varies depending on the path they are forced to take due to the available facilities you route through. That's cost, not the price charged to the customer. A route that is entirely upper east coast will drive you nuts in cost and facilities because it's saturated but if you route to the Midwest it's cheap.

Re: [WISPA] T1 bandwidth pricing
I haven't asked about T1 prices around here, but I know an in-state Qwest to Qwest DS3 was quoted to me at over $10,000/mo. -Kevin On Sat, Aug 1, 2009 at 1:32 PM, Robert Westrobert.w...@just-micro.com wrote: T1 pricing here in this area, Central Ohio, is just under $800.00 for one point of the route with ATT including internet access.
