Connectivity to your place for example looks excellent:

the first 4 hops within their infrastructure, oh look, hop 5 it's already in the US, the by 9 it's in your DC.

How does your traceroute to ovh.com look?

So far, I've tested 2 routes to the US and both have been excellent.

Any more?

Cos if not, your call of US connectivity being awful is well, wrong

--edit
go on then let's test some more:

hops 1-6, their backbone, 7 and we're in the US, 10, we're in the destination DC.

he.net always routes via the NL cos that's their point, but look points 123 their structure to get them to the main transatlantic DC for that route, 5 we're in the US bing done.

Ergo, no problem with hosting with OVH for US-based customers.

Anyone want to send a traceroute of their DC to ovh to see if the same can be said of these US DCs?
