Fintel and TFL sleep in the same bed essentially. Fintel is the gatekeeper of the southern cross cable protected 
heavily by the local government, your typical monopoly setup. Connect is a business unit of TFL. I think you can do the 
math there. 

Fintel does not do BGP out of the country (or didn't the last time I was there). Forget VSAT, waste of time.
