Re: High ping times to sprintlink.net

Ahh... you're just barely across the border. Guess they just backhauled everything back to NC since that's the closest thing to that market. Who was your local telco before Sprint took over? Was it Centel?

Re: High ping times to sprintlink.net

Waaay back before Sprint came to town it was United Telephone. Bell South is the only other company close to here but they don't go past Knoxville (72 miles away).
