Round robin is a configurable fallback for Akamai geoloc. Could just be set up that way.

Thanks Jared. We operate our own DNS resolvers, which are seeing the same behavior. I wanted to test against a couple of public servers to, presumably, rule out a geolocation database problem.
Josh,
All looks good with regards to the data provided at https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__thebrotherswisp.com_inde... with the exception of https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.ipligence.com_geolo... which seems to be junk serving junk data.
So far, Akamai is the only provider we are seeing issues with.
Thanks for the feedback.

I recommend against using 1.1.1.1 as that may direct you to far away locations. I can help you off-list further.

The IPs you're coming from, look what they say at the various geolocation services here:

Two hostnames I'm looking at include:
business.officedepot.com https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.teacherspayteachers.... 'A' records for both have a TTL of 20 seconds, and randomly resolve to IPs in the US, and Europe (we are in the US/Oklahoma).
For example, business.officedepot.com is resolving to both 96.17.32.230 and 88.221.37.87 (at different times). I've verified the same inconsistent behavior against 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1.
This is causing issues for an educational customer of ours. Is anyone aware of issues within Akamai that may be causing them to source content from Europe?
