For those who don't know about it: Apparently, about 2 months ago
Bellsouth switched routing for many states over to a route through New
Orleans, instead of the usual route through Atlanta. This was supposed
to be a temporary solution during an "upgrade".
As a result, latency doubled and, for some, packet loss resulted
because of congestion along the new, much longer route. This so-called
"temporary" re-routing has continued for some(myself included) until
this very day. Symptoms of the New Orleans routing include doubled
ping times and sluggish web page loads.
In the last weeks, Bellsouth has returned to Atlanta routing for some
of the effected states, but the New Orleans routing continues for the
entire state of Alabama, large portions of Tennessee, large portions
of Florida, large portions of North Carolina, and maybe more. You can
determine whether you are effected by the bad routing by doing a
traceroute. If NOL shows up in your traceroute, where ATL once was,
then your routing has been changed to New Orleans. (Unless, of course,
you are closer to New Orleans than Atlanta, in which case this is
normal).
Maybe if enough of us complain, we can get this fixed.
BTW: Here's a link to one of the many discussions about this at
Dslreports.com:
http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,5241844~root=ilec,bels~mode=flat
And here's a link to the general Bellsouth forum at dslreports so that
you can read through some more threads about the routing issue:

It doesn't appear that KY is going through NOL, but I wish BSIS would
assign DNS names to their routers so we could tell how we are routed.
Latency has been much improved over the old UUNET route through
Chicago, which ran between 80-90 for me. When BSIS took over routing,
latency dropped to 50-60, then recently, it dropped to 30-35.

I would bet that this is EXACTLY the reason that you've been having
poor service. After all, when you route in traffic from 4 or 5 more
states, somethings got to give...
Sounds like you're having the EXACT same symptoms that I am(I'm routed
through New Orleans).

My connect used to be almost that good. I would get about a 42 ping to
most servers. Since the routing change, I get 95-100+ and at least 20
hops :(

Art, can you try running a trace from Dos? I usually quite a few names
along the trace, but you got almost all IP numbers. Maybe this is a
Cyberkit thing?
If you've never done a traceroute from Dos, you can do it by opening a
Dos window, then typing TRACERT DSLREPORTS.COM
Still don't see names on the BSIS portion of the route, except the ones
here in KY that have been the same since day one. As soon as I jumped
off the BSIS network, the router names start showing up. Here is the
DOS tracert to dslreports.com which looks like we are going direct to
ATL from the BGK router here in KY, then out on ALTERNET/ATTnet. I
don't know where dslreports is located, but it routes from atl-washDC-
NY-NJ-???.

The DOS trace to newsgroups.bellsouth.net is the same as Cyber-Kit
produced. BSIS just doesn't assign names to their new routers, so it is
hard to pinpoint a problem to a particular point on their network,
except by IP address. This brings up a question for me. Since we are
into Atlanta in 6 hops, why is it taking 7 more hops to get to the news
server which is also in Atlanta? Looks like it's taking the senic
route. ;-(

Apparently, not all of Kentucky is going through Atlanta, though. On
dslreports, there are a few Kentucky customers who have the New
Orleans routing. I guess you won the Bellsouth crap-shoot :)

But, for the state of Alabama, this is NOT an isolated issue. Routing
for the whole state is through New Orleans. I've yet to see an Alabama
traceroute that doesn't go through NOL... unfortunately :(
My pings used to look like that... ah, those were the days

Billy, even your first hop has delay that's typical of dialup
connections. Robin Hoods trace is from a different block of IP
addresses, so you may be in different parts of B'ham or one of the many
small towns around B'ham. Check some of the other IP addresses that are
reporting trouble from B'ham, and maybe you can develope a pattern to a
particular router that serves a common area. With that information,
BSIS should be able to fix it. FWIW, I had a trouble that appeared to
be similar to your traces, showing bad everywhere along the route. It
turned out to be AC power line noise on the transformer pole in my back
yard. I detected it by using a battery powered AM radio tuned down to
the low end of the AM band and off any station. The noise was easily
detected and loud and clear. Any new AM radio transmitters in your
area?
Here is another tracert..just done...followed by another with Neotrace
Pro.

For some addresses, it seems that routing is normal. For others,
routing goes to New Orleans, then on to Dallas, then on to
Tim-Buck-Two... For some reason, Bellsouth drops us off in New Orleans
for some addresses.
Everyone, please trace to dslreports.com, as this will show the
problem if you have it.

Art, If you check the dslreports forum, you'll see that reports of
this problem are in from North AL, South AL, and all points in
between, not just Birmingham.

I tried an internal modem, but it hurt when I walked.
