Not really. I only know how to diagnose from the bx which is having the
issue. Which means the ISP proxy in your case.

As far as the end points go you may have to dig really deep, like
tcpdump deep, to see exactly whats going where and what is coming back.
 From the client end initially.

Contacting the ISP admin and enlisting their help might be of some
advantage.

It's just an idea I have, so yelling may be counter productive. But
being in the middle they would certainly have the best position to look
into the problem.
