Correct. Netflix should not be entitled to free connections, but the ISP should see the advantage in doing so and accept.

"They" are some party who wants access to your network subscribers. To begin with, when you get that call, it looks identical to a potential customer wanting to order a dedicated access solution which you are happy to sell them. Now they tell you "no, I don't want your upstream, I want to reach your subscribers". You (ISP) are free to say "no, you pay the same as everyone else" or alternatively you may think "this is Netflix (for example) asking, I will free alot of bandwidth from my expensive upstream peering which I pay $XXX for". You are (should be) free to make the business decision whether you want to absorb the cost of this connection in order to save costs elsewhere. Otherwise you (ISP) ignore them (wannabe Netflix like startup). On Dec 16, 2017 23:17, "Mike Hammett" < wispawirel...@ics-il.net > wrote: Who is who here? We need to keep the conversation clear.

What would you do if a "customer" (from your perspective) said to you that they were special and you shouldn't charge them anything? A) you would ignore them, or B) you would give them a price. Either way it's your choice, at least it should be anyway. _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless </blockquote> _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
