Re: Primus DSL, uncapped and unthrottled?

primus has taken a serious hit in both PR and sales for quite a while now... seems like they are making major moves on the infrastructure end to curb the bad press they've been getting over the last... little (long) while.

hopefully it's just not hot air.

either way, with all the acquisitions primus has made over the last couple of years, it's probably one of the very few (if not the only) 3rd party provider that has the financial ability to build an almost completely separate network (primus DSLAMS are popping up more and more).

this is kind of like choosing between the lesser of 2 (or 3) evils.

and primus does not throttle. for those who have been getting "throttled" (before the bell fiasco), it's probably related to sync. and there are definitely no caps.

i've been with primus for about a year now. they've generally good, though there's been room for improvement... i'm willing to hold out a little more since it does sound like they are working on really fixing things up.
