Network neutrality is the idea that internet service providers (ISPs) should treat all data that travels over their networks fairly, without discrimination in favor of particular apps, sites or services

The FCC will meet on October 19th to vote on proposing Title II reclassification that would support accompanying net neutrality protections

Their upgrading to your area could add more hops to resolve your dns. Doesn't hurt to test. Can apply it to a single device with issue you mentioned, flush dns (or restart device) and see if it resolved the issue.

I honestly doubt that, but even if so, that would add a very few milliseconds to the round trip, not enough for a human being to really notice.

And I'm definitely noticing a difference now.
