Another pragmatic solution is to call the editors of comm week, network world, data communications and suggest that they might get a lot of mileage writing a story comparing and contrasting the performance of ISPs. They do this for routers, bridges, FR services so they can probably find a respectable consulting/measurement group to collect information. Some of this could be live empirical data and some of this could be survey. cheers, peter >>>> From Kent England > >Unfortunately, the practical solution to your problem is to shop around and >the more you know about your unique topological concerns the better off >you'll be.
