Request another tunnel with a different PoP
Shadow Hawkins on Friday, 28 September 2012 18:21:31
After successfully setting my connection and have it working (thanks for your help!) I've been checking my traceroute anb latency to my current PoP:
Brazil
Uberlandia brudi01

I've also tried various different ones and with this particular one, I get this:
