That's why WTFast fixes the issues; it circumvents that whole network.
Well it seems to me like this problem is mostly beyond SE's control then. The only thing they could do would be to relocate to a new datacenter or do something to force routing around the problem areas if Level3 can't fix them. I can say at least the former option would cost a fortune.
