Routing change (with server migration?)

Dunno if this affects anyone else, but since last tuesday or so, my connection to tera (or at least diag.enmasse.com) has been routing through dallas instead of straight to chicago. I'm mostly fine with it because it eliminates the packet loss I was experiencing with the other savvis route (making tera playable..), but it does mean my ping which was 15 with zayo is now stable at around 60-70. Did anyone else's route change or Is this limited to my isp?

    I don't notice any major changes here, so it may be that something changed to finally workaround the bad nodes from before (though indeed, that's a crazily roundabout way to do it).

    Of interest, yesterday CenturyLink (who owns Savvis) got approval to buy Level 3, another major U.S. backbone. As part of that process, they are also required to perform some divestitures. So, expect some more possible changes in the months ahead...
