        Oh, I was pinging the wrong site. I actually get really good performance (~17ms rtt) to the actual site.

        Have you tried changing their DHCP dns servers to forward to Google or openDNS?

          Once it leaves your gateway, there isn't much you can do.

                Does the site use a CDN or anything? If not using Different DNS servers wouldn't change your route. It would be something to do with how their ISP is peering with the other network.

                  not sure about a cdn (or how to tell). so what steps can I take to better their experience? this is terrible. constant lock ups, time outs, etc when using web forms.

                      yeah, that's what I get for the most part as well. but our provider says that's not good enough. and say that we're the only ones with issues etc.

                            well, coliver is getting 17ms pings. and I'd imagine it's b/c of hes geographic location. I think the site is hosted in NJ or something.

                              Looked at the last route it looks like they are out of Boston. Which is about the same distance to me as NYC is.
