Re: Best 2 ISPs in San Francisco... ?

Since you mention downtown SF:

What does 'best' mean to you ?

If your definition of 'best' includes minimal delay to get the connection up and running I strongly suggest you contact the building management to find out which providers already terminate connections in that office building.

DSL and T1 service is in most cases provided from a fiber multiplexer already present in the building. This is the quickest way to get service because you are only dealing with two entities: the provisioning department of the service provider and the technicians of the (usually independent third party) company in charge of riser management (typically neither the tenant nor the ISP have access to the communications riser).

If you plan to bring entirely new service into an office tower (digging up streets) expect significant delays.
