AFAIK, Verio is shrinking back to a small footprint.
We ordered service from them in Toledo, and after being over a year late
in being turned up due to delays on their end, we got a letter from Verio
Legal stating they were pulling out of Toledo, leaving us with a DS3 into
their pop that they refuse to pay term liability on.
I would avoid them if at all possible.
