Re: Lossy cogent p2p experiences?

The initial and recurring packet loss occurs on any flow of more than ~140 Mbit.  The fact that it’s loss-free under 
that rate is what furthers my opinion it’s config-based somewhere, even though they say it isn’t.

Unless Cogent are not trying to accept (and by extension, may not be able to guarantee) large Ethernet flows because 
they can't balance them across their various core links, end-to-end...

Pure conjecture...
