Re: [News] Insight Using Sandvine To Control P2P T
given the scop of the place where I work I have seen this come to fruition hundreds of times in the past.
I prsonally wouldn't doubt that somewhere on insight or on at&t there is an implementation of sandvine, whether a rogue middle mgr gave the order or it was a trial or a li ... whaqtever I would bet there is some implementation of it. Just look at the problems various ISP cutomer have been having with port problems lately..... p2p, now cox an world o warcraft users, sandvines p2p is supposed to route throuh the most cost effective. How often do you think this port rangin that gets fwd goes through a p*ss poor system like lvl 3 in washinton is notorious for, an gets dropped etc. Maybe th ability to access things aren't the ISP's fault directly because they buy into the technology based on what they are told. From all reports of what we've seen th current implmentation of Sandvines QoS and P2p setup was somewhat lacking but a good first step for what it is trying to accomplish. The addtl overhead to run it a couple places have deemed it not worth it, or used the dreaded 'value added' catch phrase lol. |
