Been trying to figure out what the deal is with Verizon. Was watching streams fine before switching to them. I know it is most likely a problem on Verizon's end. I read a reddit post explaining that Verizon routes Twitch traffic through a congested backbone. Now, I spoke with Verizon to get their take and when I gave them the Trace Route pasted below, they told me that 213.155.131.138 (RIPE) had banned my IP address and that this was most likely the reason. Does this make sense? I'm not good with networking, what conclusion would you draw from that Trace Route? If it IS a Twitch problem, let me know. I've just been assuming it is Verizon's issue.
