I think snap3r is from Romania. I've read that at least one ISP there doesn't give you but an Ethernet cable that comes from the exterior and is plugged directly to your network card.

You will wait for a very long time for that confirmation . The staff there is awful . I tried to signup some times with real info but they never accepted it .

That's bizarre, how does that work? For that matter, I don't even know how universities do it, since they're always their own ISP.

Edit: I mean, there's always something, you can't just plug into the backbone directly, right?

Not into the backbone, as far as I've been told it's a simple Ethernet cable, as if the modem was somewhere outside.

I found it odd too - I don't even know what the advantage for the ISP might be.

most of ISPs (if not all) do that there.

That I wasn't aware of. I thought it'd be the exception and not the rule.

That explains their terrible international peering. What a bottleneck!

Some fiber optic networks don't require a modem, from what I have read.
