Re: High ping times to sprintlink.net

I guess this isn’t uncommon. I am in south central Pennsylvania about halfway between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia but my IP appears to be out of Ohio.

Regarding sports coverage I am considered in the Baltimore/Washington area. The NHL streamed some preseason games over the internet, but one had to be in the local area to see it. They check by IP address and thought I was in Ohio, so I was out of luck. A bit irritating.
