For the customer with an Internet "mission critical app", being tied to a Tier 2 has it's own set of problems, which might actually be worse than being tied to a Tier 1.
I think this is largely dependant on the specific topology and redundancy in the Tier-2's network and the way they provide multiple uplinks. When done well, with uplinks spread over separate physical locations, well thought out IP adressing and de-centralised exits from the Tier-2's network out to multiple Tier-n's, there's usually a benefit to multi-homed connections to a Tier-2 rather than a Tier-1, with minimum capacity and pricing being the most important ones. -- --- Erik Haagsman Network Architect We Dare BV Tel: +31(0)10-7507008 Fax: +31(0)10-7507005 http://www.we-dare.nl
