Having re-read this thread, you're right, I was confused. I mis-read
what Matthew was telling me. I interpreted this as his routes from
Cogent to L3 were now moving through Sprint as opposed to being
directly connected - as opposed to him having multiple carriers.=20
Obviously, that isn't the case. My bad.
Sorry, Matthew.
