Internet suppliers have to connect abroad in order to connect with Poland
Published:
22 March 2004 y., Monday
The biggest Internet suppliers accuse TP SA of abusing its monopoly position on the market and restricting access to its NPNET network.
They claim that TP SA not only charges them eight times more than foreign operators and makes them pay for NPNET connections, but also refuses to introduce a peering system which allows for free traffic, a common practice all over the world. TP SA defended their policy by saying they are limited by the tax laws and can do little more than grant peering to equal partners. As a result alternative operators still have to pay for the connections that are mainly used by TP SA's clients and not their own. As a result they are increasingly opting to connect into Poland and with TP SA through foreign operators.
