Is that "100% of carriers report implementing firewalls in 100% of their
gateways" or "100% of carriers report implementing firewalls in at least
one gateway"? I suspect that it's closer to the later than the former, and
that it includes firewalls located at gateways on the *customer* side of
the circuit (managed IP services, including managing customer routers and
firewalls).
