Thanks again Frank! That link was useful as well. I didn't realize @Home operated a tier one backbone. I'm trying to put this in perspective with possible outcomes of this court case. It seems to me that the physical cable provider could connect to multiple backbones, with routes set by the end-user boxes. Then the cable guys would act similarly to the phone company and just act as the go-between - the physical connector between the user and the ISP. I'm not actually thinking of AOL here. AOL would do best to just use the @Home high speed backbone to connect to their proprietary services, and outsource the internet connectivity. I'm thinking of WCOM/MCI/UUNET. Why couldn't these guys just connect directly to the physical cable like @Home? SM
