Hello,
I’ve been having some weird issues relating to WARP and peering. I’m from Iraq and our Internet infrastructure and peering agreements is a very hot mess to say the least. EarthLink (AS50710) and Asiacell (AS51684) Both peer to Cloudflare fine and even reach the BGW datacenter, however the WARP service ends up exiting the country and in the process I end up with really high latency. I basically end up connecting to IST (Istanbul, Turkey) and the peering between Iraq and Turkey is also horrendous, I get better ping times to Central EU!
So what’s the problem? Is WARP simply not available in BGW? Is it an issue on Cloudflare’s side or is it an ISP problem? I’ve tried contacting the ISP multiple times up to no avail. It’s either no response or I get the usual “Turn the router off and on again”. Assistance would be great, thank you. I’m gonna attach necessary diagnostic info below

Note: All diagnostic info were pulled from EarthLink however Asiacell yields the same except 1.1.1.1 which returns 12ms instead of EarthLink’s 95ms. I’m happy to supply more info if needed.
Note 2: I’m pretty certain EarthLink blocks WARP however this is irrelevant to the problem since Asiacell experiences the same latency issue
