Re: Just pay
said by TheGhost  How can Congent force them. From what I have read, there was an agreement, it wasn't being kept up from Congent's side, so Level3 cut them off per the contract. Seems like a straight forward case. I guess force is the wrong word...they are pushing L3 to make a decision on pricing in the markets where they compete. If L3 keeps the same prices Cogent will take a lot of customers from L3 and basically push them to do something ie cut off peering to try and get Cogent to raise prices. If Cogent doesn't raise prices and they keep taking customers from L3 even if Cogent works out something to pay L3 for the peering I would still think Cogent gets the better deal...more customers and more revenue and hopefully for them more profit. Also, there has been no proof from either side what the "agreement" is/was and whether either party broke the agreement in anyway. |
