Hurricane has probably the most peering of any large network on the planet. They also carry more v6 traffic than anyone. But they have a famous problem with v6 - you cannot get to Cogent (174) from HE. Since you have Cogent, that should not be a problem. Private, smart people, customer service is excellent, generally good network. One minor thing to keep in mind: They do not have as many weird “features” as some of the other big networks. If you are looking for something very specific (as opposed to vanilla transit), you should check to see if they support it. Not saying they won’t, just saying I would check. Which, frankly, is good advice for any network. I have not used Zayo in many years, so cannot comment on them. -- TTFN, patrick
