Oh how funny I’m working on a billing issue with them for a circuit they turned up but didn’t connect to the MMR for 2 months... -Ben

Speaking of Cogent service (and I know you guys are watching), I'd love to get someone's help off-list turning up a p2p that has been moved to billing despite being told loud and clear it doesn't work. I half-expected it to not work when I found out there was a type 2 provider involved, but I definitely did not expect to be billed for it...

Agreed. A couple IXes, Cogent, HE, and a couple others. Add more IXes and others as needed. Eyeballs should be fine with the above.

I guess people really don’t like Cogent judging by the fact that one unrelated email caused all this to happen again.. :-)
Cogent have more pain points on average but they’re still the best option for getting to other Cogent customers. It’s not really hard to design around their shortcomings. I’d rather have 30 small links and be well-connected than two large ones and be SOL because someone refuses to peer.
I can’t speak to their MPLS service, because cogent’s the last company I’d ever trust with my backbone.
