I saw a mention of our old friend Istop. My feeling is that Teksavvy is
Istop without the politics - although Ralph Doncaster was entertaining
for a while. :-) 

Teksavvy: Fixed ip (or 2 or 6), choice of 100GB cap on PEER1 or
unlimmited on Cogent (but 5ms to 15ms more latency), servers allowed, no
blocks or throttling that I'm aware of, Dry-DSL, good price, good
support - I'm happy!

Primus - We have a business relationship with them so I'm not unbiased
but I've had no significnat problems with them so far. Been with them
for long distance for several years, was on their ISP service until the
move the Teksavvy (wanted the fixed IP and Dry-DSL) and been on their
VOIP since August. They were quite helpful in helping us orchestrate
the concurrent move of our home phone number from Bell with our move to
a new home with our move to Dry-DSL/VOIP.
