I was helping ldoz with this issue tonight; it's a weird one.

 

He's connecting to an IPv6 version of the XI website that is resolving to a server in Hong Kong - according to the FlagFox plugin, that is.  His ISP is AT&T and I checked his router config.  It is set up to use AT&T DNS Servers, and there appears to be no way to reconfigure that setting in the router.  I could have set his PC to use specific DNS Servers, (like Google on 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) but we decided not to tempt fate.  Reason for looking at DNS is that I can't figure out how he's resolving to an IPv6 address without it coming from his ISP.

 

Is it possible that the company hosting this website has global servers and is serving up IPv6 from servers in Hong Kong?

 

Here's a screenshot of a ping to XI from ldoz's computer:

This website has access servers in over 23 countries through the CDN we use. The website server itself is located in the USA.

 

When you perform a DNS lookup to our website you will be directed to the access server which you have the best connection to (should never be more than 80ms ping).

For me it's an IP from the US.

 

Three things i have in mind:

 

- your Flagfox or their Database is/was not up to date

- manipulated proxy settings (willingly or malicious)

- Cloudflare's IP database is outdated.

 

Cloudflare redirects you to the nearest caching server.  If they think, that you are located in China, they will redirect you to a caching node in China.

It is possible that your IP Adress has been assigned to an asian provider in former times. So if Cloudflare's DB is outdated such things can happen too

This is to do with the Activision mater server - not this one, to my knowledge a solution is being worked on :)
