Erich,
you have given us success and loving the fact I have you guys on 2
different carriers for complete failover access.
The coolest part is stacking IPV6 which is a part of the peer we have
with you guys.
Thats right Josh I am cool because I have IPV6 LOL!

Thanks for the Fusion mention Dave. We have worked hard the last
several years building a network that is WISP/FISP friendly, offering
flexibility in bandwidth costs, co-location, going where others would
not, etc.. Steering around all of these resellers that have popped up
the last few years has been interesting. A lot of them talk a big
game. We are in trenches everyday dealing with Att, Windstream, Zayo,
etc.. If you want to talk about Overheard costs to run a nationwide
network, having colo in multiple major cities, it is not cheap. Don't
get me started on x-connects :( but we try to stay as competitive as
we can especially at our Primary POP locations. I actually don't
understand why Cogent is giving bandwidth away as they are, kind of a
red flag IMO. They also are not peering friendly. We are peering
friendly. We are closely priced to HE. Oh and we are part of the
WISP industry, we even deliver bandwidth via licensed links to certain
customers :)
Sincerely,
Erich Kaiser
The Fusion Network

This is why I like fusion.. I get a 10G but only charged for 1G.
The pipe allows us to go over if we need it based on 96th percent.

5 years is practically forever. The per gig sounds great but I am
prone to look at it more in the terms of need. If you only need 5
gig but you buy 10 to get it at a better price, you really just
doubled your "perceived cost". To belabor the point, need 5 but
bought 10 at $200 a gig? You just paid $400 a gig.
I will say when we had HE, Cogent, and Level3, I was always
shocked how much traffic went across the HE connection. I was
expecting it to be the lowest utilized and it was always the
highest with over 70% of the traffic with shaping or route
forcing going on. Straight BGP.

Given how much things change in 5 years, I would be extremely
reluctant to sign a 5 year contract for anything Internet or
telecom related. Granted you can usually renegotiate as long
as it’s upward.
5 years is an eternity in Internet years. Anything over 2
years makes me uncomfortable.

I just got quoted 3x that from Century Link. Century
Link's quote is half of what we're paying now.

Latest circuit I am working on obtaining from Cogent
is $220 per gig. I can get it as low as $150 if I
take a 100G circuit.
