Cogent and TATA de-peer in Asia

edited May 17 in News

Just came across this.
Looks like Indian routes are the most affected ones.

First NTT, now TATA.

    Why does Cogent constantly pick fights with other T1s? Is this just greed?

    Greed combined with being a bully..

    No amount of good will and good faith augments on Cogent’s part has brought TATA any closer to the negotiating table for a resolution to the lack of connectivity in Asia

    Diversity hiring got a primadonna right there at PR

    Ouch, I can't imagine this is helping Cogent at all.

    Local ISP, upstreamed by TATA and Airtel. I think most ISPs use that combination.

    My SG VPS with Contabo (Cogent) has seen a huge impact actually. Apart from huge latency (+500ms from Spain) I have a lot of packet loss (I'm getting routed through HE now)

    I've been noticing a lot of "filled pipes" moving traffic through Cogent -> Arelion (Telia)

    To be honest I think it's time we consider cogent a T2 like some people consider HE.

    Cogent lays down everything on the table. Who’s bigger?

    Noticing impact in other places too. My BuyVM Luxembourg was usually routed via Cogent to DE and came via Airtel to India. 160ms.

    Now it's going via HE, 1299 and TATA to London, heavy packet loss and 300ms+ ping.

    On the reddit post, this is 'parentally the email they sent out to customers, which implies that Cogent used the SAME template as the depeering with NTT. I thought this was a copypasta at first, but turns out it's not.

    Oof.

    Those who consider a T1 being able to reach every other network on the internet without purchasing transit.

    Its just hearsay still but..

    Apparently its drama related to the upcoming RIPE meeting where arguments are made for and against taxing/pricing members based on subnet sizes.

    Not surprising they have the whole process templated - it's a regular occurrence for them now.

    I don't think so, given the history of peering in India and some other places in Asia.
    That being said, Cogent is almost certainly not blameless, given how they offer bulk traffic between cogent peered locations, becoming an island is probably not something that is happening to them, but might be in the cards for some reason I am unable to figure out atm.
