ISPs White Papers

"Taking the Plunge" from ISP to ISP/CLEC

Overview ISPs have made substantial leaps forward in becoming the Next-Generation telecom companies in the USA. Just as ISP’s are jumping into the telecom business, the local telephone companies are moving into the ISP business. Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers (ILECs) and Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs) have aggressively begun pursuing the Internet business as an addition to their existing telephone company services. Local telephone companies currently control most of the lines, which are required to reach end-user Internet customers. They can act not only as the suppliers of lines to ISPs, but by installing remote Internet access equipment in their existing central offices, they are able to provide Internet services.
