  1. Cloudflare routes data from Bangalore to EU via Hong Kong (Mar 2018)!
  2.  
  3. We recently made some changes to our network routing that has affected how traffic is served for some of our Free and Pro customers. On our Free or Pro plans (or Business in Korea), we serve you locally with any ISP that interconnects with us, but not necessarily for traffic accessed only via an ISP that does not peer with us.
  4.  
  5. If some of your traffic is being served to users at ISPs that do not peer with us, there is a good chance it may be served from non-local routes. Despite being closer to one particular PoP you might find that your traffic is flowing through another one located further away. While performance for some of these customers may be reduced at times, all other Cloudflare benefits will work the same.

  7. You can read more about this on our blog: The relative cost of bandwidth around the world

  9. If you want to make sure you retain access to all Cloudflare transit providers worldwide, please upgrade to our Business Plan (outside of Korea) or our Enterprise Plan anywhere in the world in your Cloudflare dashboard, under the Overview section.

  14. This is the traceroute from my PC in Bangalore to my origin server in the EU that is behind cloudflare. Why is cloudflare routing this through Hong Kong? That seems needlessly circuitous.
