After following the packet-mangling hi-jinks of a (curiously silent) Comcast for many moons, it appears somebody has actually gone through the motions of graphing the failures evident on the Comcast network: failures that occur during Vonage use.  I can concur with this, as I've measured similar behavior using different tools and using Packet8, not Vonage. Other users have caught Comcast red-handed stifling VoIP traffic. And of course, who could forget the classic Comcast  "bitch dog" incident? So, Comcast, is it time to fess up?

Click here to bookmark this link.Channel Image14:28 Jeff's post-Katrina petition[read] The VoIP Weblog
Designed to avert a total lack of emergency communications in the wake of another Katrina-like disaster, Jeff Pulver and Tom Evslin have submitted a petition with the following suggestions (to the FCC):

We primarily ask for a mechanism to ensure that individuals are reachable after a public crisis that causes communications networks to go down. We propose a solution that we think could provide immediate relief before the next hurricane season and before more elaborate rules might feasibly be established. We ask simply that the FCC require any provider obligated to provide E911 services to establish an alternate communications service for affected customers via either: (1) activating for each customer a voicemail service that would be accessed by incoming callers dialing the customer's phone number, or (2) providing expedited local number porting to an alternate service provider selected by the customer, including porting to a number outside of the geographic area and/or rate center. Either of these proposals would provide a technically feasible and reasonable means of ensuring that consumers remain connected during emergencies.

I really, really like these suggestions. The first one is just a common-sense suggestion. But the second one has benefits beyond the scope of disaster preparednes. Faster number porting mean better competition. Better competition means better uptime.  Now Jeff has also said that he doesn't intend to pitch IP-based infrastructure using Katrina as the impetus. I say "why not?"  

Check out all of Jeff's reasoning by clicking here.
