Do you know what a more accurate number would be? I'm curious...

- eastdakota 12y agoIt really depends on your scale. When we first launched CloudFlare 4 years ago we were paying around $20/Mbps as a blended average in North America, Europe, and Japan. We pay much, much less now both because we've grown a bit and because the price of transit has continued to trend down.
- samcrawford 12y agoWe pay $1.50 per Mbit with a commit of 200Mbps in NY, LA and Miami. This is for 'premium' blended transit (e.g. Specifically excludes Cogent and HE)

- MichaelGG 12y agoL3 (on the more expensive side) is probably around $3/Mbps for not-huge commits. Junky providers, like HE, are probably under $1. You should be able to buy no-commit "blend" for around $5 without trying too hard and go from there. (The main issue is making sure they don't prefer something like HE, like e.g. IPTP does.) But some datacenters offer ludicrous prices like $15 or $25, and apparently get away with it.
