Hmmm...

When I was an engineer for Cogent 7 years ago, Telia was a peer then, and actually set to use Cogent peering as a default route.

Meaning, they were only supposed to be accepting and using Cogent and Cogent customer routes, but instead, they were sending to another destination, likely 0.0.0.0/0 on Cogent's network. Since they didn't have a transit agreement we put a stop to that quickly.

I'm not surprised Telia is still causing problems for Cogent, especially now that Cogent is competing with Telia.

I find it interesting that when we switched to Cogent, one of our customers started complaining that they were getting very slow downloads - 10K/sec type. Guess what network they were on...Telia! Maybe Telia was throttling traffic before this split.

Or maybe Cogent's peering link with Telia was grossly undersized and Cogent didn't feel like spending their share of the money to bring it up to a reasonable size, and when Telia told them that they weren't going to foot the entire bill, Cogent depeered.

It's wierdo, not weirdo. Yes, I know that's not the 'proper' spelling of the similar english language word.
