Not that I havee actually seen this problem because we don't buy transit from MCI, but... You may want to try adding a few additional copies of your AS to your MCI advertisement "prepend as 65536 65536 65536" where 65536 is actually your AS. It largely depends on _how_ PSI is implementing their policy. It could just be that all routes learned from their West Coast router (i.e. a Border Router) are given a lower priority than private connect routers. I guess a PSI person would be much better at answering with specifics. I know I have seen customers get traffic flows to jump through the most insane paths just be adding god awful AS lengths to their announcements. Hope it helps, -Deepak.
