NAFAIK they are still in Chapter 11 I believe, but they are selling off their country/regional business as franchises and keeping the core backbone as before. Keeps things rolling and they get lump sum cash from the franchisee's to keep cash flow going. -- Martin Hepworth Senior Systems Administrator Solid State Logic Ltd +44 (0)1865 842300 Quibell, Marc wrote:

Hi all

Our ISP is PSI-Net and we use then in Oxford (UK), LA and New York all on leased lines.

Over the past month the service level in NY (West 46th Street, well out of the way of the WTC) has been not up to its usual standard. We've had lousy pings, bad latency for telnet traffic, routing gone wild etc etc. One problem gets sorted and a few days later another is back again. PSI-net indicate that alot of these problems are being caused by local telco problems.

Has anyone else seem problems in NY or are we somehow special????
