As for ubisoft.com What a useless games publisher they are, the way they operate is take peoples money and do nothing in return ,when it comes to supporting their games,
I agree that they should have a network of servers around the globe because they sell their games on a global scale, But not ubisoft , most games publishers allow a fully standalone dedicated server , that can be installed on independent gaming servers or on the end users pc, and apart from a server browser system, all traffic is connected directly to the host , not via a server farm , a much better system
Complaining to ubisoft, is totally pointless they would just say take it up with your ISP , and at they end of the day my contract is with plusnet for internet connectivity not level3 or any other peering provider or ubisoft

I wouldn't be so sure about Ubisoft being unhelpful with ISPs. When the Chief Network Architect from BT reached out to them about the problems with their customers, they seemed to have a dialogue behind the scenes to fix the problem. Also, it looks like some of the other peering partners (Cognet and TINET) were actually worse for UK users and BT had to move things to Level 3.

Also as for ubisoft customer services please don't make me laugh, here is the latest reply to the ticket that i raised with them regarding this issue
That e-mail from ubisoft support was received, 20 November 2013 12:02 that's how good or how bothered ubisoft support really are,
Quote I have looked into your issue and passed your incident to the appropriate department for further analysis, I will email you as soon as I have further information to resolve your issue.
Thank you for your continued patience.
The Uplay issue was that lots of customers where unable to connect to the newer uplay system, not peering , If a thousand people got together and went public they may suddenly appear to be bothered, but when a thousand people who aren't together as such do the same, they don't care the response in the e-mail and the fact that they have not contacted me since proves this

As for your base pings - has there been any change to sites like bbc.co.uk? I doubt there is very much that can be done about the increase in the pings because they are still very much acceptable for transatlantic traffic. I've seen some SLAs for leased lines in the UK and those are about the difference we are talking here for UK to UK pings.

not only this but this issue has only recently been introduced, and as i've already posted there are other routes and peering available, even with both level3 and AS6453.net
Also using AS6453.net's looking glass from the Montreal server to my ip the tracert doesn't route via Chicago it routes as it should directly to NewYork
So IMO it's down to the way Level3 have configured their set up to connect to AS6453.net this is the possibly the underlying cause why traffic goes via chicago

Routing/peering returned to what it was originally ,for now at least, i just hope it stays as it is
Well that was short lived as it just got switched back to the [Censored] routing again AS6453.NET are idiots!!!!!

Target Name: lb-lsg-prod.ubisoft.comThis poor route to montreal is also showing signs of congestion ( increased latency and packet loss ) on hops from if-17-2.tcore1.L78-London.as6453.net to if-22-2.tcore2.CT8-Chicago.as6453.net yet level 3 see nothing wrong

Quote from: Kelly We've raised it with them and they don't think there is a problem. Issue is still open on our side.
It's been 2 weeks, any updates or progress on this?

Perhaps someone at plusnet could ask level3 to change their routing to ubisoft , instead of ignoring me , so much for customer service ,or relations,

You've said that the game you're having trouble with is Tom Clancy's rainbow six Vegas 2, which platform are you running this on? PC?
Thanks,

At least both my tracert that shows the direct route and this reverse one both show that the direct/correct route still is operational , but not being used probably due to a misconfiguration , that no one seems capable of identifying or bothered enough to do anything about it, not aimed at soley at plusnet but the 2 peering providers and BT if they have anything to do with it

This longer indirect route adds enough latency without the effects of congestion , why is no one from other peering companies or ISP's complaining about how crap AS6453.net are ? months on and nothing has been done
