hi stephan

this is the reason why it is important to really really pick carefully your 
ip-access or
ip-transit provider. ip is not a matter of price/mbit as you can see here -

study peering connect, peering policy and peering reality, for the ip carrier 
of your choice,
carefully in all markets, which are important for you.

in general it is not unusual that you have ip networks which are focused on 
routing primary e.G.
via usa, amsterdam or scandinavia - depending on where their headquarter is 
running -

if the given names belongs to a category which you want to blacklist is your 
decision -
i don´t want to comment this here...

in general it is high likely that smaller national isp´s/carriers or even 
regional players with an eye
and feeling for peering points in the own and neighboring countries came out 
with a much better performance
than big-tier1 - especially if these ones are involved in playing peering 
politics ...

Do you mean UPC is routing Cogent through USA?
Basically, UPC doesn't peer with Cogent and have it delivered by their 
upstreams.
This is called hair pinning and it is probably one of the very few major 
network that has such issue with UPC.

which causes high latencies

via all other providers in CH which we have tried out, incl. and swissix, we 
have much better connections / less latency.
also all our ISP's in germany have good connections

only UPC lames - that sucks ;-(

may someone of cablecom can check this, and contact me offlist ?

thanks in advance
stephan
