hello,
since longer I have seen, that UPC is routing Cablecom Home connetions via US to London:
Tracing route to 82.129.64.250 over a maximum of 30 hops

which causes high latencies
via all other providers in CH which we have tried out, incl. and swissix, we have much better connections / less latency. also all our ISP's in germany have good connections
only UPC lames - that sucks ;-(
may someone of cablecom can check this, and contact me offlist ?
thanks in advance stephan
