The text that needs translations reads:
Paid prioritization gives Internet Service Providers the power to levy tolls on edge providers. These provisions make business deals--the ability to pay more for customer access--more important to an internet company’s success than the forces of customer demand, harming innovation and a robust developer ecosystem.
The text is from a letter that will be sent to the IFT (Telecommunications Federal Agency in Mexico) to provide comments about Net Neutrality legislation that is being considered in Mexico. See http://www.ift.org.mx/industria/consultas-publicas/consulta-...
When I asked about more context, this is what I was told "Edge provider is a generic name for those who offer services that are not embedded into the Internet Service Provider, for example GitHub would be an edge provider. It has servers at the edge of the network that people can access over the network. Other examples are: Google, or a bank."

proveedores del/en el borde de red
"In the United States, edge providers are regulated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The choice of the word edge is intended to differentiate content, application and web service providers who operate at the edge of a network from those companies that provide the intranet's core infrastructure." (https://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/edge-provider)
Se trataría de proveedores (de servicios y contenidos) del borde de red. Podría funcionar, aunque es más una descripción que una traducción.

Edge provider –
Located at the edge of a network, they offer content or services online. Search engines, streaming video services, and social media platforms are all prominent examples of edge providers. While edge providers are commonly thought of as companies, individual users can also be edge providers. Some edge providers may be affiliates of access providers, which creates an incentive to favor their traffic over other edge providers.
