I'm not sure on how it is in the US, but here in Canada UUnet, at least from my expierence, is quite a nice operation. We've got a single T1 to UUnet Canada in Montreal. Their service is complete and fairly quick, I never get put on hold for too long, and they even filter DoS attacks within a nice 10-15 minute amount of time. Maybe it's different in the US, who knows, but over here UUnet is a recommend choice from me :) [...] : -Troy Matt Heckaman matt@arpa.mail.net http://www.lucida.qc.ca -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.1 (FreeBSD) Comment: http://www.lucida.qc.ca/pgp iD8DBQE5LD9YdMMtMcA1U5ARAqkaAKCeIUVGzL0+ENOT8YqhLHIqhl3VtgCePeg0 zmo73z5ywdZMcG9RgjeO7gI= =f4wZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
