Cogent is great as long as you have another peer to balance out “issues”. They have a shitload of the internet as directly connected customers.

I would in no way use them for a single upstream. For one, Cogent doesn't have the entire IPv6 Internet. They are great in a mix, especially if you have a route management platform or take only customer routes. ----- Mike Hammett <http://www.ics-il.com/> Intelligent Computing Solutions <https://www.facebook.com/ICSIL> <https://plus.google.com/+IntelligentComputingSolutionsDeKalb> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/intelligent-computing-solutions> <https://twitter.com/ICSIL> <http://www.midwest-ix.com/> Midwest Internet Exchange <https://www.facebook.com/mdwestix> <https://www.linkedin.com/company/midwest-internet-exchange> <https://twitter.com/mdwestix> <http://www.thebrotherswisp.com/> The Brothers WISP <https://www.facebook.com/thebrotherswisp> <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXSdfxQv7SpoRQYNyLwntZg> _____ From: "Jason McKemie" <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Friday, July 1, 2016 5:52:04 PM Subject: [AFMUG] Cogent Does anyone have experience with Cogent as a primary upstream? Good, bad, ugly? I assume the service location makes some difference as well. -Jason
