For some reason this morning i noticed i was being routed through South Africa to get to websites such as BBC, CNN and Reddit Causing 150-160ms of latency and slow loading.. all of those websites are running through Fastly's CDN. I noticed that the problem only exists with ipv6. All other websites are fine that are not running through Fastly. I have tried contacting support but they don't have a clue it seems, I'm just getting annoyed at the fact im being made to feel stupid on the phone by not being understood. Heres the problem:
