Outage/Instability: (Tie for 1st): 1) Shitty software from Major Router Vendors (and everyone else) 1) Misconfiguration a) Often caused by shitty/easy to fumble CLIs from Major Router Vendors 2) Attacks 3) Power failures 4) Cable cuts 5) (distant)Hardware failure Performance has been covered; the only real broadband is Universities, and relatively few transit networks can get to network large and small well.
