(“Vuze”), the undersigned e-mailed the attached material to Aaron Goldberger and Ian Dillner, both legal advisors to Chairman Kevin J. Martin. The material reflects the results of a recent study conducted by Vuze, in which Vuze created and made available to its users a software plug-in that measures the rate at which network communications are being interrupted by reset messages. The Vuze plug-in measures all network interruptions, and cannot differentiate between reset activity occurring in the ordinary course and reset activity that is artificially interposed by a network operator. While Vuze, therefore, has drawn no firm conclusions from its network monitoring study, it believes the results are significant enough to raise them with network operators and commence a dialog regarding their network management practices. Accordingly, Vuze has sent the attached letters to four of the network operators whose rate of reset activity appeared to be higher than that of many others.

  • Future Telecoms Infrastructure Review
    Future Telecoms Infrastructure Review INCA Response INCA welcomes the opportunity to respond to this consultation. • INCA members also welcome Government’s commitment to competing infrastructure investment in new digital infrastructure. • We are beginning to see the positive impact of the Government’s strategy on investment in the sector, which has led to investment announcements relating to a range of different business models. • The adoption of the majority of recommendations in the Building Gigabit Britain1 report underpins this strategy. • Our members, and the investors who back them, want to see Government hold firm and maintain its commitment to a competitive market for digital infrastructure. • A change of course would risk cutting off developing alternative infrastructure providers at the knees. • Instead, our members ask the Government to further galvanise its efforts to remove the barriers to infrastructure roll-out, to ensure effective passive infrastructure access at scale, and to take action to deter predatory overbuild by Openreach. • We are reviewing policy and regulatory progress since the Building Gigabit Britain report and look forward to sharing our findings with Government through the course of its consultation with industry on the future of telecoms in the UK. 1: What is the existing UK telecoms market structure and policy framework able to deliver? • When will it deliver, and how certain can we be that it will fulfil the Government’s ambitions for full fibre networks and 5G deployment? • What will this mean for roll-out of these technologies and for competitive models in different geographic locations? Since INCA was set up in 2010 the telecoms infrastructure market has changed significantly.
