The FCC is about to reclassify "Broadband Internet Access Service" as an

prombpted the following question which isn't about the FCC action per say.

This is about how does one define Transit provider vs ISP ?
For that matter, how does one distinguish between someone delivering IP packets, vs. someone offering frame relay, or ATM - which are clearly telecom services?
