Hi

We have a small network (5 /24’s) and we need to host our web applications 
internally because they access backend servers that absolutely cannot be 
collocated.  I am thinking about getting 2 T1’s or fractional DS3’s from 
InterNAP from different P-NAPS (1 from Philly and 1 from NY) each circuit 
from a different CO 

The reason that I’m thinking InterNAP is because we don’t qualify for a /20 
and we would not be able to efficiently multi-home. It seems that InterNAP 
is perfect in our situation because they buy transit from multiple providers 
and claim to not have any black holes in their network. 

I hear many great things about InterNAP and I hear the opposite as well. 

Any thoughts would GREATLY be appreciated 

Thanks! 

 -Seth
