<list copied as a follow-up. Further discussion by me will be off-list.> I would contact Gridnet's NOC to work with you and ANS' NOC to address the issues. I am able to trace from the east coast to the address, bouncing the trace off of ANS' Reston, VA router, but not from their San Francisco router. When it occurs again, you may want to go to http://nitros.digex.net and look at how the route is being listened to by a provider (THANKS DIGEX FOR A GREAT TOOL!). +mike network operations INTERPATH
Here is an example a Customer sent me. Sorry for the poor formating... trying to get from www.hyperchat.com to one of our dial up sites in Jacksonville, FL.

hi!.. *smile*.. it doesnt appear he is being blocked.. but..there does appear to be a routing problem preventing him from getting here...
Below is a trace which shows the problem. He needs to send this trace to his provider...and ask them to followup and ask ANS to fix the problem... okay?
Thanks...Seph
