Frontier Communications → Re: Not a good start in Tampa

That sounds more like an out of date bogon/anti-spoof filter that made its way into the path once the traffic shifted directions. If it's outside Frontier's network, it can be a bit of a pain to get corrected as everyone points their finger at everybody else.

The bright house tech called me back, he was working the the VP of networking or something along that line at Frontier. Frontier found the issue on their side and the bright house gentleman waited while I shifted the tunnels back over the FIOS connection, all are operational now and my issues are resolved.

Bright house support really came through

This is encouraging news. I suspet the Frontier network engineers have their hands full this week (putting out many routing fires like this), and the Bright House technician knew which button to push to get things fixed.

The Tuesday change in Southern California seems very solid. Most routes out of frontier.net are via L3, and latency has actually gotten better from some of the prior Verzion altern.net routing. Verizon's Southern California network architecture has always been fairly well balanced and tiered through common interconnect points in a geographically-logical manner. It looks like Frontier's implementation has the same feel based on a bunch of traces I did this morning to representative sites around the globe. Everything seems to be going throught L3 after frontier.net.

Sounds like Bright House is an up and up company. Happy to hear you have things resolved.

I really can't say enough about bright house support, without them involved Frontier had no interest in solving the issue.

...that is being purchased by Charter.
