We currently have two blocks of IP address space, 195.224.206/24 and 193.193.186/23. Everything works fine from 195.224.206 but from 193.193.186 there are often problems [...]
Did you try registering a "route" object for 193.193.186.0/23 in the routing registry? That might improve connectivity to those addresses. At least from here (Switzerland) we don't see the announcement for 193.193.186.0/23 from our European transit provider, presumably because it is filtered out. swiCE1>trace 195.224.206.1 Type escape sequence to abort.
