It's been slow for quite some time now. I only find it useful for billing purposes.  It's a shame carriers don't have a good ticket system.

Niels, I like my cogent and telia internet connections… I just recall seeing more ddos on cogent then I did on my previous att, and current spectrum… telia is showing a good bit of ddos also

 

Let’s put it this way, I can thank Cogent and Telia for helping my get better in my ddos mitigation skills  ☺   … there’s a bright side to everything huh

even at times of peak utilization?
