IP Transit Provider Opinions

Currently we're multihomed with Cogent and Hurricane Electric.

I seem to experience far less problems with our Hurricane Electric transit than I do our Cogent. I won't air my dirty laundry against Cogent, but I will say their lack of IPv6 peering is a major pain point. When our Hurricane Electric connection goes down, so does the vast majority of our IPv6 view of the internet. Changing the carrier hotel itself would be far more difficult, so here's a short list of other transit providers I have access to:

  • Zayo
  • XO

Coming from Cogent, what are your opinions of Zayo and XO?
