All,

I've been working diligently to improve performance of interactive applicat=
ions (Citrix, terminal) that are run by users in our office located in Anch=
orage, and are served by a managed Internet connection provided by GCI.  Ou=
r applications reside in the Buffalo, NY area.

Via MTR, I've seen no or almost-no lost packets, whereas RTT averages aroun=
d 124ms and at times is as high as 328ms.

I'm looking for feedback from others regarding this RTT, hopefully from cus=
tomers of GCI.  328ms RTT is high as far as I'm concerned, and it seems lik=
e this could be controlled a little better.

If this is status quo for GCI->VZB/MCI connections, then I'd be interested =
in that feedback as well.

Thanks in advance
