Not to sound like a commercial for RR, but with the Business Class
account comes -much- better service.  You get a number to call, you
leave a message, their system pages the on-call tech, and they call you
back within a half-hour or so (I've gotten calls back in less than five
minutes).  Plus, it's a real tech, not someone who simply reads from an
online manual.  They've rolled trucks to fix issues for me before.

In the end, our Road Runner has been just as (if not more than) reliable
as the frame relay connection it replaced (and cheaper and faster!).
