| Re: Sigh... said by Ahrenl :If they want to create an express lane for Voip, great! But all Voip servicers' must be able to sell their Voip service on the express lane. Otherwise it's an abuse of the government granted wireline monopoly. Obviously you can see how if they were allowed to restrict competitors in that service from using the express lane, that the outcome will be all services used over the internet will come from your incumbent wireline ISP. FWIW: Cablevision (and I would assume other cable companies since CV can't be smarter on general principle), is already treating VOIP service (From Them) as an independent network with it's own set of IP addresses, and QOS priority. One quarter (I think) of all the homes they pass have VOIP from them. 80% of all home use some form of digital service from them (either VOIP/ISP/Digital Cable services) They can tell their VOIP since they control the boxes, etc. Now if they allow the prioritized packets from non-CV VOIP devices (and I believe that Vonage, et al, do at least mark their packets as priority) to pass undisturbed on their regular network (which is pretty fast since base service is 15/2), how does that work with or against in Net Neutral thinking?
I'm just asking, how this plays or are you saying that they have to NAT the packets onto thier own VOIP network? |
