Whats going on at Cogent

Agreed. A couple IXes, Cogent, HE, and a couple others. Add more IXes and others as needed. Eyeballs should be fine with the above.

Cogent have more pain points on average but they’re still the best option 
for getting to other Cogent customers. It’s not really hard to design 
around their shortcomings. I’d rather have 30 small links and be 
well-connected than two large ones and be SOL because someone refuses to 
peer. 

I can’t speak to their MPLS service, because cogent’s the last company I’d 
ever trust with my backbone.
