We were in a Regus office for 5 years, and were treated very, very well, but their Internet and Internet policies really suck. We had a shared switch with most of the other clients. The bandwidth was barely ok. Then they upgraded, but they limited each client to 2Mbps symmetrical. But that was not the worst thing. They also switched from AT&T to Level 3. Not only did they cut our effective bandwidth, but Level 3 had a lot of latency. Everything we had went through Cincinnati. Fortunately, RCN had fibre in our building/floor so we signed a contract with RCN. While we were only DOCSIS 2 for a while, the bandwidth was usable. Regus actually signed the contract with RCN because they had a couple of other clients on RCN. However Regus' accounts payable center moved to Manilla, and every once in a while the bill didn't get paid, and the office manager had to yell and scream at them. So, getting a provider outside of Regus may be a good plan.
