I do have to say that the PSI net side of cogent is very good. We use
them in Europe without many issues. I stay far away from the legacy

I do have to say that the PSI net side of cogent is very good. We use
them in Europe without many issues. I stay far away from the legacy

Some things just never change at cogent.. fought them for months way
back when to get me off their infamous 2 bgp peer setup after many an
outage due to this setup, they finally put us on a single bgp session
