Seriously, though...

Does anyone have a definitive list of how the various ISPs in BC or Vancouver 
hook into the Internet?  Do any of them use BCnet for access?
In my former job, we had a direct fiber link to the BCnet router in Harbour
Center and my dial-in router sure seemed fast.  I'm currently dialing into
Mindlink with the same client hardware and things are as slow as molasses in
comparison at all times of day.  ...oh well...

Note to the fine, fine people at Mindlink who may be reading this message:
I'm not complaining, I'm just comparing.  I'll live with it.
