[outages] Spectrum latency in SATX area

[William Peebles]

We have a few remote employees with Spectrum in different locations in the San Antonio area who have had a lot of VPN disconnects today due to high latency between their machines and our firewall in Boston.

Spectrum customer service gave them the typical run-around speech about how it's our problem and not theirs, but even Google and Cloudflare are giving higher pings than usual
