We used Cogent for some time. We dropped them, but not for poor quality (au=
contraire) but for other more complex reasons. IMHO, Cogent is far better =
than many say (any many of them only from 'knowledge' from word of mouth), =
Cogent has some oddities that you have to deal with, yust like with almost =
all other transit providers. Having said that: I don't want to be single ho=
med again.
