Interesting that it detours west through Charlottesville instead connection straight north up the I-95 corridor.

Even routing to the Comcast speedtest site takes me to Charlotte first.

FWIW, there are no guarantees that any rDNS / geolocation data associated with routing hops is accurate / current..

Pretty damming though when all my trace routes to web sites go through Charlotte but the one to the COmcast Ashburn core router goes through Charlottesville to Ashburn.

And the latency difference shows a correlation also.
