Thanks Brian, for the clarification and the graph..
yes, it's good to know, am not shocked that it seems to avg out at 56kbps symmetrical. For a dozen ISPs, that is truly small. Take a look at the 8 peers at UIXP for comparison: http://stats.uixp.co.ug/peerorder.htm They are doing over 2.5 Mbps on that peering fabric.
I suppose, since we now have some OFC, interconnectivity already to some degree,
This is the key thing, not only do we have cross border fiber, but we have the rise of a regional carrier. This was one of the goals of a regional IXP project. Would be nice to have more than one at some point, but one has to start somewhere. -- Cheers, McTim "A name indicates what we seek. An address indicates where it is.
