Hi Brett,

I am not able to test LSANCA-LCR-12 yet. that equipment only appears in the traceroute in the evenings here in Chino Hills, CA. I will post my traceroute for LCR-12 later tonight.

Here is my current traceroute (as of 11am PST):

In the MORNING here in California, the problematic equipment is at lax15.alter.net (152.63.116.157) and it CHANGES to LSANCA-LCR-12.verizon-gni.net [130.81.140.162] in the evening.

I am confident you and the team were able to fix LCR-12 but I won't see the results of the fix yet (LCR-12 is, again, not in my traceroute until later). I will know more tonight when I run the next traceroute. For now, please flag the switch at lax15.alter.net as well since it's resulting in a 227ms ping time (not as bad as 900ms but still bad) as well.

Indeed, my stats show that it starts bogging down around 2-3pm, is at its worst around 10-11pm, then tapers off to "normal" performance around 3-4am.  I'm inclined to believe some load balancing goes on and puts us on a different server (or other equip?) that has some issues. I've sometimes performed multiple traceroutes in a row where it toggles between LCR-11 and LCR-12, and 12 will show high latency but 11 does not. 

I won't be able to check again until later this evening.

Proxus, the ones in southern California that are posting about problems are having issues with a specific Verizon router. Not related to any OS or anything at the house. They were having issues out on the Verizon network.

Now there are several others that are posting similar problems but most of them are outside the Verizon network and there is nothing that they or Verizon can do about it.

For those that don't know what we are talking about here is a basic description on interpreting a Trace route. When you look at a trace route and you see the hops (each numbered line is a hop). Each "Hop" is a router between you and your destination

Now I'm borrowing a trace route from one of the posts here just as an example

 1  myrouter (192.168.1.1)  0.793 ms  0.388 ms  0.486 ms

 2  l100.lsanca-vfttp-142.verizon-gni.net (xxxxxxxxxxx)  7.238ms  7.783ms  9.489ms

 3  g4-0-6-1142.lsanca-lcr-11.verizon-gni.net (130.81.140.122)  10.478ms  9.159ms 

 4  so-4-3-0-0.lax01-bb-rtr1.verizon-gni.net (130.81.29.244)  9.730ms  9.576ms 

 5  0.so-1-2-0.xl3.lax15.alter.net (152.63.10.133)  37.716ms  9.150ms  10.235ms

 6  0.ge-7-0-0.br2.lax15.alter.net (152.63.116.157)  227.405ms

 7  xe-11-0-0.edge1.sanjose3.level3.net (4.68.111.249)  9.480 ms

 8  ae-93-90.ebr3.losangeles1.level3.net (4.69.144.244)  16.484 ms

 9  ae-2.ebr3.sanjose1.level3.net (4.69.132.9)  237.848 ms  261.55ms  239.838ms

10  ae-63-63.csw1.sanjose1.level3.net (4.69.134.226)  252.618ms  216.51ms  208.3ms

11  ae-1-69.edge1.sanjose1.level3.net (4.68.18.14)  176.62 ms  187.039ms  162.6ms

12  google-inc.edge1.sanjose1.level3.net (4.79.43.146)  177.378ms  174.036ms 

13  209.85.251.98 (209.85.251.98)  147.398 ms  146.797 ms  172.664 ms

14  nuq04s01-in-f104.1e100.net (74.125.19.104)  149.644 ms  159.282 ms  152.626 ms

Now in this example to google.

Hop number 1 is the router in the persons home.

Hop number 2 is what is called your default gateway. This is the first router after you leave your house, basically in the central office down the road somewhere.

Hops 3 and 4 are the Verizon network between you and the "Internet". Most of the people here were having problems with hop 3 when it read a specific router in the Verizon network. That is what they are working on now with VZBret.

Hops 5 to 11 (in this example) are the "internet". For all intents and purposes, your ISP nor you have any control over these. You can only hope for the best

Hops 12 to 14 are on the Google network.

Now the lower the ms number is the better. However for the most part, depending on distance and time of day, numbers lower than 200ms are usually OK
