I have a (possibly naive) question.. The peering between above.net <=> bbnplanet.net seems to have (at least)two states.. (1) "abysmal" (500..800 ms latecies) : 9 dfw-lax-oc3.dfw.above.net (208.184.102.154) 59.474 ms 59.657 ms 59.794 ms 10 s3-0-6.crtntx1-cr1.bbnplanet.net (4.24.104.21) 758.127 ms 745.747 ms 741.110 ms : (2) "tolerable" (50..100 ms latencies) : 8 lax-sjc-oc3.lax.above.net (216.200.0.165) 16.479 ms 16.523 ms 16.183 ms 9 dfw-lax-oc3.dfw.above.net (208.184.102.154) 61.052 ms 58.664 ms 59.898 ms 10 s3-0-6.crtntx1-cr1.bbnplanet.net (4.24.104.21) 62.212 ms 67.094 ms 65.389 ms : ..with it being in state#1 for days at a time, and then suddenly being in state #2 for a while (a few hours to a day or so). This has been going on for months at least. Anybody have any idea what's up here? Has anyone else noticed this? today it exhibited a new state #3 for several hours: "near-death" (2000..3000+ ms latencies), after thankfully being in state #2 for a few hours. *sigh*. Isn't this affecting at least a few other folks? thanks, JeffH
