freitasm: Vodafone routes were all over the place... for a while pings to cdn.geekzone.co.nz and others were around 25 - 30ms, similar to other ISPs. This is to the Sydney POP.
Then it suddenly went up to 150ms. And that's because they started getting anything from Cloudflare from Singapore instead of Sydney.
It looks as though this is a problem specific to the upstream provider for the old TelstraClear network - Telstra Australia (telstraglobal.net). From an Ex TelstraClear DSL connection, I see connections to Geekzone either disappear into the proxy farm, or head from Sydney (telstraglobal) to Singapore (asiannet.com). I haven't encountered any specific problems with the proxy farm failing to serve content recently.
From a Vodafone mobile connection, the route to geekzone goes to Vocus in Sydney, then Equinix, still in Sydney.
Ex. TelstraClear DSL connection - IP 127.74.124.0/24
