It's definitely better than it was for awhile, but we've had a couple customers complaining that "their connection never works" in the last couple weeks, and when I checked it was the same old thing with a couple dozen TCP connections to 13.x.x.x IP addresses completely killing the connection. At least one of them said there was an update going, but it could very well be something like Windows Defender.
