Well that is nice for you. But we are far from a second rate reseller. My servers are hosted in verio, as well as Telx 60 Hudson. On my own cisco 7206 I have GigE connections with Level3, Verio, BTN, Savvis, and Cogent. As far as I can tell our provider is just colo'ed with someone, and using their bandwidth.

Also when I did a traceroute to your provider, it would seem that he is not located in the states, which my network is. Currently we operate data center space out of 60 Hudson NYC, Scranton, PA. Dallas, Tx. and Tampa Fl.

Also during that traceroute, I was getting round trip ping times of well over 250ms. With our SLA on my network you will never be higher that 79ms, and that is at peak times.

So I am happy that your provider offer service with more option. At least I know that when a client hosts with me, they have the best possible connection to the internet, with good strong servers and support to back it all up.
