We've had trouble with UUNet so we dropped them. We've not had trouble with Sprint. The best experience has been with Savvis. Hope this helps, _M

(Users connecting to the |Terminal Server in Toronto.) The remaining is done by local |users in Toronto. | |With all of the recent problems on the Internet, there are |times when Los Angeles and Chicago can not access Toronto. |This brings work to a slow crawl. | |Currently, all locations on are business DSL. (VPN between |locations.) The ISP in Toronto is Bell Canada. | |The question is, if Toronto (and possibly Los Angeles) was on |a T-1 line, would the connection have a greater up-time and |guaranteed connection? In other words, if Toronto was on a T-1 |line, would they have experienced the slow downs and time outs |that they have experienced the last month with the DSL line? |(Fortune telling aside.) | |Or is a leased line between Toronto and Los Angeles better, |but at what cost? | |Please respond off-list. | |John Tolmachoff MCSE CSSA |Engineer/Consultant |eServices For You |www.eservicesforyou.com | | | | |To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html |List Archive: |http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%|40list.ipswitch.com/ | |Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ | | | |To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html |List Archive: |http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%|40list.ipswitch.com/ | |Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/ | | To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
