Well the first point it is that with routing depends whether you go out of the a side or the b side core at the pops site so like midd-t2core-a or midd-t2core-b as to which backbone side u end up on and ultimately which peering partner your traffic goes to...

Your dial-up customer maybe they have a proxy specified or maybe their dialed into a pop site thats got the traffic servers turned off or something??? - mind u dial-ups just slow - i'm on it tonight and yet my mate on cable modems are going - its slow its broken etc....

just a side note..next time you run a trace you might wish to cover up the details of the midd-lam1-xxxx.inet.ntl.com and its IP as its possible to work out what leased line that refers to (if you have access the routers of course)
