I am in the midst of writing a long cover story on how backbones are responding to internet growth pressure and when something breaks I am interest in understanding what happened. Gordon, Why would this be a backbone issue? It sounds to me like Westnet relies on a single connection from its NSP, and that this failed for some period of time. Any single component, be it circuit, router, etc. *will fail*. If a regional depends on a single point of failure the outcome is inevitable. -- Jeff Hayward
