Is Comcast having a routing issue?

Browser can't reach amazon.com's site; and running ping shows following output; so does comcast have a loop in routing? And that is why I can't reach Amazon? Referring to lines 6 through 30; thanks.

 

     # tracepath amazon.com

Hello,

 

I am having similar issues in Philadelphia areas.  I am able to get to most sites however having issues with sites like livechat.com.

 

I think Comcast is having some BGP issues still, just a thought unless someone can tell me otherwise.

 

When I enable my Comcast link, users start complaining very fast.

 

Here is my traceroute:

I'm having routing issues as well.  The issue is not with my home but with the network after it leaves my home.  When I run pingplotter to Google's DNS servers or many others I have dropped packets.  And I would not be worried about it if it wasn't affecting the final destination but it is.  I have called and notified Comcast with no resolution 😞
