Jeremy,
Some of the routers and load balencers that we use will drop any packet
that contains any bits in the reserved section of TCP headers. There are
firmware updates being planned by our vendor, but they are not available
yet. Also, we have to wait until they are fully stable before we can use
them on our site. We can't have our routers and load balancers falling
over constantly under stress because of bugs in the firmware. When we
can, we will update, until then, there is nothing that we can do about
this.
We apologize for any inconvenience.
