[asterisk-biz] North America Internet bandwidth

[Jarrod Lash]

I also know that if you purchase circuits in China you have this same type
pricing model... A local cheaper circuit (aka behind the Chinese firewall)
is much faster domestically (in China) but an international one (a private
circuit to Hong Kong where you pick up internet access/ therefore bypassing
the great fw) is MUCH MUCH more expensive (around $5K/mo per meg)...

So Jack if you are buying a circuit in the US and/or Canada then whatever
you look at will be an international circuit.
