The part that I was particularly concerned about was where it left qwest for BBNPlanet and got right back on Qwest. I went ahead and gave them a call (at the number listed on Jared's page), and they asked for a traceroute, etc. I gave them all the research that I had done and they just kinda fell silent when they saw my email to them. Then they said "We'll have our NOC group take a look at this.". I thought that I had called the NOC!!!! Yet more examples of clueless morons manning the phones. (Not saying that my employer is not guilty of the same :-( ),
<off-topic> .. and since various companies keep hiring bright university students right off the bat, they don't get to spend time learning how the net works by working in a NOC. Which means, finding clueful people to staff a NOC is getting more difficult each day. Thanks guys. :-) </offtopic> Adrian -- Adrian Chadd "Sex Change: a simple job of outside <adrian@creative.net.au> to inside plumbing." - Some random movie
