Just got a call from "Tosten" of a company called "Bandwidth
Advisors". They represent themselves as a "Independent Telco &
Colo Consultants" (see web page).
Seems that they are calling around ISPs and asking them if they
have an "agent" program. After talking to him a bit I find out
that they will only recommend a company if they are getting a
kick-back from the company. Sounds like a company to avoid if one
really wants an "Independent Consultant".
