High latency and packet loss to China (AS4837) Saturday 22nd August 2026 09:08:00


Our AS4837 China optimised networking in Seattle is suffering from higher latency and some packet loss at peak time due to a fault in China Unicom's backbone. We do not have an estimated date for when this will be fixed.

Our AS9929-CMIN2 routing is unaffected by this issue, although due to a separate issue, some China Telecom regions will see elevated latency at peak time due to congestion between AS9929 and China Telecom. China Unicom and China Mobile are operating normally.

This issue appears to have been resolved.
