Bad routing in Virginia
I need to escalate a ticket to a network engineer at comcast / xfinity. I am located in Northern Virginia, the home of 80+% of the internet traffic and datacenters. Typically all pings / traceroutes are lightning quick due to the proximity of the edge servers here around Ashburn, VA
As of Feb 11 at exactly 7am, ping jumped from a rock solid 10ms to any local speedtest server to mid 30s and has stayed there since.. Performing traceroutes Now to a server sitting in ashburn now routes down through richmond, to Georgia, and back up to ashburn. Something is clearly wrong with the routing at Comcast, and I wanted to escalate this. I have a traceroute from my home to phoenixnap in ashburn.

@typhune - this could be a peering issue with Level3 in Sterling,VA that is why your traffic goes to Atlanta area to comeback to VA via as6453
Below is how I am able to reach 131.153.128.2 from the Beltway region -
