Anyone know if they use a proxy? it would appear in my trace route a proxy shows up (see below) but none of the usual signs of a proxy server.
the proxy is "ptb-proxy02.plus.net"
Tracing route to bbc.co.uk [212.58.253.67]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 192.168.7.1

Hi
No its not a proxy. Its an old DNS entry for an IP we have re-used as part of the DPI work that is going on. They will all be cleaned up/updated as part of that work.

The hint being the ptb part of the name. That's technology building! We haven't been in there for about 5 years!
