    Good morning everyone,

Yeah, almost looks like either qwest or most likely amazon.

Did notice that the IP resolved from 54.239.25.208 before complete reboot to 54.239.17.6 after, so could have also been the local DNS getting stuck on something weird.

 

Edit: Either way... looks like a team win.
