UUNET (Alter.net)
I use them and I've got customers migrating to my ISDN service from
an MCI connected service provider because a single 64K b-channel here
was two to three times faster than their ISP's 128K line WITH compression :-P
hardware is the same (Ascend MAX's at both sites) but I'm using Alter.net
and they're using MCI.
