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.  |
