Replace Level3 with CenturyLink as they're basically taking over AS33566. Would add Zayo (AS6461) to the list.

I'm not familiar with Sparkle/Seabone to be honest as we're operating an eyeball network exclusively in the NA.

.written in 12/2015 - do y'all think this is accurate, and, in 2018, is it
still accurate ? (asking since my next question is related to Sparkle, since
they are listed in that previous article as a significant Internet presence)



Also, please tell me your feelings/experiences of Sparkle as an Internet
uplink provider. like for 10/100 gig.



My coworker just got back from ITW/Chicago and he is considering Sparkle as
an additional Internet provider for the ISP I work for in San Antonio, TX .
we would need to uplink to Sparkle in the central Texas area somehow. He
mentioned that Sparkle may be in McAllen / Dallas and could possibly, in the
future be in Austin or San Antonio
