Spectrum DFW routing issues
Looks like there's a router in Dallas that's dropping certain
routes. 96.34.3.69 seems to have issues forwarding certain connections
along.

And just to prove it's not a one-network issue:

Already let Spectrum know after having to jump through some hoops, but if
anyone is experiencing similar behavior let me know and I can give you a
contact to reach out to.
