Consumers and businesses across Chattanooga, Tenn. are saying goodbye to Internet Overcharging from AT&T and Comcast, making the switch to EPB Fiber Optics. While Big Telecom companies claim community-owned broadband is a business failure, see why so many businesses and consumers in southeast Tennessee reject that claim and have made the switch. Speed that blows Comcast away, prices that deliver a much better value than AT&T, service and support that is fast and reliable, and a community-owned provider that keeps its earnings right at home working for the people of greater Chattanooga. EPB is one of Stop the Cap!’s most highly-recommended broadband providers. If you are lucky enough to live or work in their service area, we can’t say enough about EPB, and that’s an unsolicited testimonial from us! You can call them at (423) 648-1372.

EPB , please come and expand your services to Laurens, SC. We will be glad to be rid of Charter, PRTC (AT&T), and that awful Frontier (get the hell out of South Carolina)! All I ask is you drastically lower the price on one gigabit internet services.
An we would be glad to get rid of Slime Warner in the Portland, Maine area and I don’t mean Fairpoint service.
We need real competition.
A technical analysis of EPB’s upstream providers:
https://bgp.he.net/cc
That’s their BGP upstream #.
They use in priority Sprint #1, Level3 #2 and AT&T #3.
They still send 31% of their traffic to AT&T to the internet WHOLESALE.
It doesn’t matter, they just have better LAST_MILE coverage while AT&T Wholesale still makes money (31% of their traffic) delivering bulk traffic.
The competitors are all about last mile efficiency and buying bulk bandwidth from AT&T, Verizon, Level3, GBLX (Global Crossing), etc, etc all of which still make $$$ (wholesale operations).
Thanks for these details, Will. It’s amazing that only now, providers like Global Crossing and Qwest that threw fiber into every hole dug into the ground back in the late 90s and pre dot.com crash are only now utilizing an increasing amount of that excess capacity. It is why these alarmist predictions of data tsunamis and Internet brownouts are so ridiculous.
There is enough business for everyone, but companies that want to control it all will still fight tooth and nail to keep competition at bay, even when they earn from it selling wholesale backbone connectivity.
