My comment while was intended to a joke , sadly my concern is that Sprint
has been a great provider .

- Responsive staff
- Functional Looking Glass Server
- Clear BGP Community documentation

Cogent in my experiences from different employers is that Cogent has been
inconsistent .
 It’s a large global network with various assets , systems and personnel
maybe it’s to be expected and it’s easy to joke about it .

with that said,  as Network Engineer who has to depend on these  providers
my skin is deeply in this game ,I truly hope that the better qualities
arise to the surface from the merger .

Is there a hotline for those of us who have Cogent and Sprint….. sighs

not a pots type, but i find email to the usual addresses works well.

two reputable top tier providers.  been using one or t'other for
decades.

but it seems popular for folk with no real skin in the game to diss
them.  amusing at best.
