Hot blames Nezeq Beinleimi, Nezek blames Hot. I personally believe

Not always. The way to tell is to use a tunnel from a Linux machine.
If it gets an IP address of 172. something then your cable modem has
a signal to HOT and it is likely to be your ISP or the connection from
HOT to it.

If it gets an IP address of 192. or 10. then it is always HOT.

If you keep track of ping times from your computer to the gateway host
versus something on the other side of the tunnel, e.g. DNS, you can
track where the problem lies.
