Each of our Redbacks across the state have a list of pools to assign IPs
from, 66.230.x.x, 216.67.x.x, 209.x.x.x (not a /8 though), etc. The
209.193.63.157 IP is most likely the customer facing interface on the
Redback. There are a couple per Redback, but dependent on where in town
the other end of your dsl equipment terminates, you may get a different
next hop IP. We use PPPoE (point to point) the next hop IP isn't all
that important since all data that leaves your network knows to hit the
other side of the point to point virtual circuit.

As far as the service degrade over the past couple of weeks, I don't
know of any outages or prolonged problems that have been happening in
Juneau.
