I hear that Level 3 is good but do they handle small stuff like T-1? We may be looking to dual-home soon and will be looking around. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sean Crandall" <sean@megapath.net> To: "'Rick Ernst'" <erond@legendz.com>; <nanog@merit.edu> Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2003 15:48 Subject: RE: Tier-1 without their own backbone?
One of the providers we are looking at is Level-3. Any comments good/bad on reliability and clue? We already have UU, Sprint, and AT&T. I also realize that the "they suck less" list changes continuously... :)
I have about 5 GB of IP transit connections from Level3 across 8 markets (plus using their facilities for our backbone). Level3 has been very solid on the IP transit side.
MFN/AboveNet has also been very good to us.
