I can vouch for Jeff on that.  He and Marten Terpstra have heard from
me more than they would probably like to over the last month.  Jeff
even called me on a Saturday morning to talk about some problems we
were having and help me get them fixed.

As ISPs, I think we are all fortunate in that the router vendors realize
there's LOTS of money to be made in Internet.  I would imagine that
most router vendors are this responsive to their ISP customers.  If they
aren't, they probably won't have those customers for long.
