my provider has switched out of Internap

>So my provider has switched out of Internap to Gnax and frankly the performance has not been up to par since this change. With the applications being very ping sensitive I'm looking to find a provider who is still offering pure Internap. So does anyone have any suggestions? I'd be looking at about 2u's and 10mbit. I understand it's not going to be cheap and I'm fine with that. If necessary paying $100+mbit is fine.

I tried doing a search and found some of the recommended were no longer internap either.

this post would probably need further digging, as there are a couple of things that are not very clear - I guess a few more posts in answer to it might explain the situation better... it looks like the problem might be just with the server hosted in Atlanta (as the other locations - Dallas and Washington DC metro seem under SoftLayer...)
