No UK routing for me - it will be location and setup dependent for each member and where their ISP DNS servers are directing traffic. The techs suggest everyone use OPEN DNS servers (208.67.220.220) to direct their traffic.
My hops from work at Boston (no speed issue) are:
Hop Time Host IP Location
1 1.903 xo-gateway 140.239.191.1 Santa Ana, CA, United States
2 9.029 ip65-47-242-9.z242-47-65.customer.algx.net 65.47.242.9 Culver City, CA, United States

9 80.008 gi-2-1.dist02.tor1.prioritycolo.com 204.11.48.238 Toronto, ON, Canada
I have Comcast at home and also do not have a problem. I'm not saying others might not have an issue so we'll continue to look at this.

Yep. Well known throughout the industry that Comcast DNS servers are not up to speed (being nice here) Thanks for the DNS entry! I'll try it now.
It appears your office is connected to another office here in CA? It looks like everything is piped through here??

I must say, it's the database servers... coupled to the fact that the hosting is from a reseller of a reseller. AND, on top of all that, we're using vBulletin (3.0.5) which frightfully bloated in features -which can bog down servers.
Need a forum upgrade/switch? I'm in on that action if needed!

Make that three. I wrote my own php / mysql content management system and am happy to lend a hand. While we're at it let's fix the 3-character SQL query limitation for FULLTEXT search.

Geeze that stuff gives me a headache.

He is on FIOS!! and it is slow.. WHOA!! Cant wait until FIOS is delivered to my area. Supposed to be here soon.
It appears we have some heavy hitters that want to help. Finding a good DBA who can tweak the DB (and drives a Porsche) is GOLDEN!
Can I hire you for my DB stuff??
