I've used HE's tunnelbroker (BGP) a few times to get our ARIN space to a site while waiting on a local carrier to turn up v6, get the proper LOA, etc. I've received better service from the NOC there for a service I didn't pay for than I have from any ISP I've ever given money. They are doing a great job over there. A LOA change (/48-->/40 le 48) took about an hour.

Followup: we did the quote/PO/sign-the-order dance. That took about 3-4 days not including our side's lag (which was not insignificant, Im not the guy with the pen). But now it's gone to provisioning and will be a standard *5 days*. Cogent will do this in about 1-6 hours if you provide the LOA's with the request. So will HE. And many others. /kc On Thu, Sep 15, 2016 at 02:28:50PM -0400, Ken Chase said: >I feel this can be a public topic: > >Rogers just charged us that for an update (one update, multiple entries). >We had to go through their quotation machinery too, took like 4-5 days.
