Agreed, Please excuse my previous statement about level3 engineers. It was ment to be a private reply. (damn group reply!!) Its a personal opinion, and should be taken as such. (Its possible, and most likely true that l3 is a good provider, I just happened to speak with a not-so-bright engineer.) dan@netrail.net (dan@netrail.net) wrote:

I've found that the vast majority of very large ISPs have clueful engineers. Hoever, like many routing problems, it's not a question that a host exists, it's a question of reachability. Many times there are clueful engineers, but there are so many layers between them and customers, they are very hard to access.

Good connectivity, but clueless engineers. Problem solving is not their strong point.
