That could be much, much worse.   But still, I understand the pain. 
That's roughly twice what we would charge for a similar connection, 
except we're using 4 different carriers and 4 diverse physical paths so 
if one (or two, or three) carriers take an outage, you're still online.

Of course, that's delivered to our datacenter, and not delivered 
externally.
