Re: [isp-bgp] Help with forcing traffic to avoid Sprint?

["Rey Martin" <rey.martin@...>]

Hi,

I couldn't help, but just for curiosity
I thought that you could just contact your upstream (level3 or global 
crossing) tell them about the latency issue to SBC and let them solve it?
either they re-route it to somewhere else or solve it with sprint, doesn't 
really matter.

Am I missing something?
