This is coming from 71.216.22.6 ...

Qwest.net looks a little better. Terminates after only 7 hops past the nat box. Good response times, too. Stays out of that cogentco quagmire.

How do you hook up to one of these 192.88.99.1 thingies anyways?

192.88.99.1 is the 6 to 4 relay anycast address. ISPs should ideally configure their BGP routers to choose the closest 6 to 4 relay peer. If the ISP doesn't care, it seems like most people wind up getting sent to Europe.

Got a Linksys router with DD-WRT?

Or a Linksys with OpenWRT?

Mac OS X?

Windows?
Google for it. Lots of info out there.
