I don't really understand your response. The Canadian location wasn't manned by Japanese workers with Visas or anything.

Basically the distance between states is pretty vast, but they probably think it being located in the Country itself is enough for ping times.

I for one would wait to say where they are. The DNS may have been updated but until all locations can fully be resolved. Which it wont until pingable. The routing will not be complete. Most recent info has this IP and host name in 3 locations, Mich, Calf, and Nebraska. Lets wait till live first.

And While you may be right, it's still gonna be about as good as before because the routing may be longer but we will not deal with the routing choke at the final hop for the prior location.

Looked up the IP and it says Dallas for me, so i don't know where you got Cali from :thinking:

Actually it looks like it's in Texas after all. Good.

Whois data shows it being in Colorado while

Shows in texas. Meeh, It'll probably be on one of the three.

Folks, you can look up the DNS all day, until the servers are up and pingable the DNS routing tables will not Resolve. so the location will be all over the place as the system tries to find it.

3+ years networking.

Pingtested to CloudPing gave me 168ms to CA, which is a 70 ping increase

Welp, I'm not really happy with that :(

Haven't found anything that leads to California.

Geo IP lookups are not going to be very useful for freshly delegated IP addresses. Just traceroute to one of the IPs/hosts and it's abundantly obvious by reading the router hostnames.
