The only thing I would say is the following. This is par for the course with every game I have every played that has Level 3 nodes. RIFT, GW2, EQ2, WoW, the only game I don't have the issue is SWTOR but that is because I am close enough to the servers my route never needs to hop onto Level 3.

This was not the issue the reason that made me consider VPNs. I considered it because in all of these other games I had these same issues because of Level3 off and on throughout my time there. In essence my choices were "stop playing online games because Level3 could give a dang about consumers, as they only peer and have corporate clients" or "I can take the stop I can to fix the issue."
