Would many people be interested enough to purchase this type of plan? I want serious opinions before I do more research and consider it.

depends on the setup fee :) and tos/aup.

i would only consider this for high volume sites such as download or adult.

It's Cogent and it great for software site and any kind of sites that require huge downloads. No contracts, you leave if you don't like the speed. I am that confident about my Cogent connection. You can have you own opinions about Cogent, I don't mind. I have been on it for 6 months and it's been solid.

You might be tracerouting your cogent connection from the same area. But take a look at this thread (http://webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?threadid=51882) where people are having funny results with cogent (and I have not seen this with UUNet, ATT, etc).

I think I don't have too much confident with cogent like you, but perharps it was just me.

Good server offer, btw ...

cheers,

I am a small company. I am sure allot of small companys start out small but I am honest. I am in Santa Clara in a carrier hotel. (Clear Blue tech) aka Colo.com I have a full 100Mbit connection with Cogent and will add BGP in the future. You can't compare peering of Cogent with peer of UUNet, ATT, etc. The price difference is too big. I am trying to get feedback before I go ahead and do this. Setup fee will be $100. I have allot of colo space and extra bandwidth which I don't need. I don't intend to get so low that I end up loosing money. Thanks

I have gotten Cannot Find Server with WHT a few times myself.
