Think about your last statement. If someone is homed to 2 different providers, and 1 circuit goes down, the other should keep them up.

to contimue doing it..I'm still awaiting the list of providers that never have a circuit go down. :-)Every carrier has had a circuit go down.On that we agree.The difference is the carrier's response, in particular how well they keep their customers informed.That is certainly *a* point of differentiation, however if the goal of these "basement dual-homers" is to not suffer downtime due to the outage of a single provider(much like the organizations that "matter"), all the responsiveness in the world from a provider whose circuit to one of the "basement dual-homers" which has failed isn't going to prevent them from being down, is it?
