A ping request to soap108.com gets us the ip of 63.99.241.45, and an
WHOIS lookup tells us the block of IP addresses is owned by UUNet Technologies. A trip to their
website reveals that UUNet is actually a division of MCI Worldcom that specializes in wholesale internet (a traceroute confirms this - the last hop was done through a wcom.net router).
A domain name whois, on the other hand, shows us the information which was mentioned in a previous post. Nothing really useful here, except that the contact information is listed in Ft. Lauderdale. soap108 lists his Location (here on CD) as Plantation, FL, and Mr. Mapquest reveals that Plantation is, infact, a suburb of Ft. Lauderdale.
Anyways, the point is that all this public database information tells us absolutely nothing about how much soap108 pays for their bandwidth - since uunet is a wholesale distributor, soap108 may be getting their bandwidth through uunet directly, or (more likely), through some kind of resaler (honestly, I don't know enough about this area of business to make a guess at it). So unless someone can figure out this piece of the puzzle, I'm affraid we'll never know just how much soap is putting into the FIRST community.
