I just got this going today. I've used Sixxs in the past and I'm happy to see they are
still simple to work with.

GCI is now routing my IPv6.. however.. I have to go to Seattle and back.

I'd like to sarcastically thank whoever at ATT and/or GCI is keeping peering between them
unavailable. It's the most sane thing anybody has ever done and the business reasons
along prove that there is genius at play. I can see how this keeps people from..
something.. I'm sure.. and capitalizes profit margins and reduces bottom lines and crap.
Maybe somebody didn't win in a three legged race and now this is just tangled up in
redonkulous bureaucracy. I dunno.. but I figured we could just make this happen.

As for ACS/GCI. I will gladly donate a secure and reliable wireless backhaul that can
operate at ~100mbps to you guys in order to make this happen. Hell.. I'll donate enough
to make it 500mbps.

Cheers,

Shane
