I just started to switch my office to RCN. They were quick and responsive. Once we signed the contract, they had it installed the following business day. One of the first things I did was to make sure we had our static IPs (I had to make a couple of calls, but that was fixed quickly). One of the things I did first was to run a traceroute to blu.org. In our current network that is run by Regus though Level3, the latency was significant causing a ping to take about 70ms. In RCN, we were down to well under 20 for a single ping. Traceroutes were reasonable. Actually we signed up for the 60/10 service, but that will not be available for a month or two. The only holdup right now is that some of my colleagues are doing a joint project and demo over the next couple of days, so I won't be able to reconfigure the Sonic Wall until Friday afternoon. As a footnote, I am very satisfied with my Comcast service at home. --=20 Jerry Feldman <gaf-mNDKBlG2WHs at public.gmane.org> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
