I think Frontier can get quite overwhelmed at times.  I was following the cutover from VZ to Frontier in Florida on DSLReports.com and there was a weekend where there were some obvious/bad BGP issues.  There is apparently one guy who’s a lead in the routing/peering group, and they seem to not know when to actually call him in.  Or he’s an ex-employee, or a consultant, very unclear.

This of course, sounds ludicrous for an ISP of this size, but…

https://www.dslreports.com/forum/r30885528-

Maybe make an account there (worth it to be rid of ads, and IMHO, the ISP-specific forums there are better than Down Detector for finding problems) and then IM “JT”.
