Answering datacenter
Hi guys, what are the causes (tested myself today) that lead to a datacenter form France to respond to a visitor from Nepal or a datacenter from GB to respond to a visitor from US?
I know for sure he's from US/Nepal since we tested with real clients. I'm just wondering what should I use or what should I do in order for my workers to respond from the closest location to the user.

Ultimately, it depends on the users ISP. Their ISP determines how the user gets to Cloudflare and some ISPs route Cloudflare to farther away datacenters to try and get Cloudflare to pay to have the traffic routed closer. Sometimes having a higher tier plan in Cloudflare can help
Got it, never knew tier plans influence this. Thanks
