Re: Cause: New Edge and Britsys channel conflict
A P K,
I'm with one of those ISP's who resell New Edge.
We are a local provider, and we do pretty well servicing the local area (being local is one of our best advantages vs cable and the ILECs). So far, NEN has done a very good job in not aggressively marketing Transedge to our service area.
I know it's different for nationwide providers like Britsys, but we work very well with New Edge.
Another thing is that we don't even TRY to compete with the ILECs for residential customers. There is not enough margin to make it worthwhile, no matter HOW we get the loops (i.e. ILEC or New Edge). Maybe I'm wrong, but I blame the FCC and the RBOCs for this situation.
If they (New Edge) were to launch a big billboard campaign in our city touting Transedge, things would be different
Just my $.02
Regards,
