Bad Routing On Airtel Bangalore

[cipher90]

I have to say some IP's for instance

108.61.196.101 (Vultr London)

is routed via Mumbai -> Chennai -> Singapore -> London

Instead of the usual route Mumbai -> London.

And this is happening with Tata's routing.

traceroute to 108.61.196.101 (108.61.196.101), 30 hops max, 52 byte packets

Also did the Airtel guys visit your place?

 

[Carbonaut]

Is this recent or has it been like this since you got the new connection?

 

[cipher90]

No, it has started recently and I'm surprised how come both Airtel/Tata are inefficiently routing with high latency despite having different submarine cables.

 

[RedskyITM]

They keep scheduling when I'm not there without calling to ask. I'm probably just going to close the case and get another connection.

 

[rajan20]

Same here,, my Connection is Routing through India-USA-Germany... rather then going IN-Germany

 

[vignesh_venkatesan]

BSNL is also affected coz it uses Tata and Airtel as upstream providers.
