BSNL changed upstream provider to Airtel

[Trex]

Is it local proxy or remote one?

It's BSNLs address immediately after my router.

Ok then you are definitely behind CG-NAT cause the 2nd hop is a private IP not public.

2nd hop is a private IP. But that needn't be a proof of CG NAT. It could be the local switch which has been given an internal IP. The customers external IP needn't show in a hop. That's the internal IP showing as first hop.

@Trex Like I said, a proxy address. It's a proxy gateway address. Look at your second hop, that is your gateway address. A private gateway address has its uses but it doesn't affect latency.

Ok, first time ever getting these kinds of latencies to Cloudflare. Finally, they fixed it, at least for the north region.

BSNL have always had bad routing to Cloudflare. You might see good latencies one day and the next day it'll go bad.

Slight tangent, using cloudflare as dns ruins upload speed to Google Drive as well. Using Google DNS or BSNL's own I get upload speeds way more than my plan allows me to. Possibly because they don't support EDNS Client Subnet and I'm missing all the peering benefits.

@Adithya and you were right.
Yesterday: Atlas Console
Today: Atlas Console

Finally, they started peering with Cloudflare at DE-CIX Delhi.

They were already peering with DE-CIX. Could have been some BGP issue. Fixed for me too, now requests are going through DE-CIX.
