October 8, 2002 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- According to new data published by research organization Telegeography (Telegeography.com) long-haul bandwidth prices on many major routes have stabilized, and even risen, in recent months, after years of decline.

Telegeography says that monthly lease prices for 155Mbps circuits have increased slightly every month since April on the world?s busiest international communications route from, from New York to London. During the same period, bandwidth prices for most major US domestic routes have generally experienced decreases of two to four percent, with increases in a few cases.

According to Telegeography, the well-established routes are experiencing stabilization because some of the most aggressive carriers are no longer competing in the same markets due to restructuring, and price is no longer the primary concern of bandwidth buyers.
