Sprint has a master ticket #3461302 open for at least something related to this problem, or at least that's what the engineer thought. Apparently they're having an 'issue' with a router on the east coast. He muttered something about gateway 13, but I didn't catch it all.
I just got another call back to tell me that they'd isolated the problem to the Orlando, FL site where we connect to them. I said "I don't think so." All their NS servers are unreachable or unresponsive (to the whole net, not just me), and they think it's a bad circuit in Orlando? It seems almost like the two callbacks I've gotten so far are from different parts of Sprint. Neither seems to know what the other is doing. Neither seems to know what's going on in general. At least the first one knew there was some general "big problem" on their network. Both are acting on the same ticket opened by a single phone call from me.

I'm on CW.NET and I am seeing routing that doesn't make much sense to me. Things vary by host within a class C and by source address. I can reach some addresses within a class C but not others, and that varies by the source address I am using. tracing FROM 208.152.116.17 TO 209.207.224.196: traceroute to 209.207.224.196 (209.207.224.196), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 208-128-66-16.ipv4.intur.net (208.128.66.16) 169.363 ms 157.531 ms 174.376 ms 2 208-128-66-2.ipv4.intur.net (208.128.66.2) 177.345 ms 149.884 ms 139.444 ms 3 208-152-121-1.ipv4.intur.net (208.152.121.1) 170.996 ms 149.054 ms 159.872 ms 4 bar2-serial4-0-0-15-0.Chicagochd.cw.net (208.172.8.145) 189.807 ms 189.665 ms 179.858 ms 5 acr2-loopback.Chicagochd.cw.net (208.172.2.62) 179.738 ms 209.73 ms 189.853 ms 6 corerouter2.WillowSprings.cw.net (204.70.9.146) 179.814 ms 191.996 ms 207.478 ms 7 core4.WillowSprings.cw.net (204.70.4.73) 189.864 ms 189.573 ms 189.914 ms 8 cw-ip-eng-interconnects.WillowSprings.cw.net (206.157.77.94) 189.819 ms 179.604 ms 182.714 ms 9 sl-bb11-chi-2-1.sprintlink.net (144.232.10.157) 176.883 ms 199.484 ms 169.924 ms 10 sl-bb11-atl-4-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.18.34) 209.803 ms 219.697 ms 209.885 ms 11 sl-bb10-atl-9-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.12.17) 209.813 ms 220.153 ms 209.832 ms 12 sl-bb11-rly-5-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.9.197) 209.502 ms 226.099 ms 229.827 ms 13 sl-bb5-dc-4-0-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.7.166) 219.826 ms 199.655 ms 210.105 ms 14 208.28.7.19 (208.28.7.19) 209.79 ms 199.643 ms 209.726 ms 15 sl-csg-1-0-0-T3.sprintlink.net (144.228.108.94) 229.768 ms 209.828 ms 209.876 ms 16 ns1.andover.net (209.207.224.196) 219.811 ms 229.701 ms 209.731 ms tracing FROM 206.97.151.201 TO 209.207.224.196: traceroute to 209.207.224.196 (209.207.224.196), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 eth-1.cisco-1.intur.net (206.97.149.1) 2.084 ms 2.077 ms 2.167 ms 2 unassigned-private-host.in.30.172.in-addr.arpa (172.30.1.2) 3.575 ms 3.480 ms 3.458 ms 3 bar2-serial4-0-0-15-0.Chicagochd.cw.net (208.172.8.145) 27.515 ms 27.499 ms 27.570 ms 4 acr2-loopback.Chicagochd.cw.net (208.172.2.62) 28.523 ms 28.057 ms 27.915 ms 5 corerouter2.WillowSprings.cw.net (204.70.9.146) 29.202 ms 28.836 ms 32.201 ms 6 core4.WillowSprings.cw.net (204.70.4.73) 30.887 ms 52.848 ms 29.607 ms 7 sl-chi-15-H1-0-T3.sprintlink.net (206.157.77.90) 30.392 ms 30.746 ms 30.570 ms 8 * * * 9 * * * 10 * * * 11 * * * 12 * * * 13 * * * 14 * * * 15 * * * 16 * * * Things are good up to core4.WillowSprings.cw.net, then there is a diversion.
