I have been getting frequent LDs over the past 1-2 weeks. I originally suspected a problem between me and P99 but traceroutes and pings always worked to project1999.com when I was seemingly LD.
Today during a LD I tried my usual network tests against eqemulator.org and found that I was losing connection somewhere in NYC:

To compare, this is a tracert after the issue subsided and I was able to reconnect:

I have bolded the hop that seems responsible for the dropped packets.
Dropping this here in case anyone from p99 staff is able to pass it along to the people responsible for those hops.
