Edge IP 69.46.46.41 appears to be blackholing all traffic (sfo) — hostname pinned to it is unreachable

Since approximately 2026-08-18 17:00 UTC, one of my service domains became completely unreachable from the public internet, while the container itself stayed Online and kept serving normally (all scheduled jobs completed on time throughout the outage). The hostname resolves to 69.46.46.41. That IP accepts no TCP connections on port 443 for ANY hostname, tested from four independent networks (two ISPs, a third-party HTTP proxy which returns Cloudflare 522, and a cloud fetch service which returns ECONNREFUSED). It was still dead as of 2026-08-19 16:09 UTC. By contrast, 69.46.46.37 and 69.46.46.79 respond normally to a direct request with HTTP 404 "Application not found", so those edge nodes are healthy and only .41 looks broken. What I tried, in order: several redeploys and a service restart (all completed SUCCESS, edge still unreachable); then deleting the service domain and generating a new one, which landed on .37 and worked instantly, confirming the app, the target port and the deployment were fine the whole time; then renaming that domain back to my original name, at which point the UI showed the name as "Available" and the rename succeeded, but it immediately re-pinned to 69.46.46.41 and went unreachable again. That last step is the interesting one: it suggests the hostname-to-edge-node mapping is deterministic, so my original hostname stays unusable for as long as .41 is down. I have since moved to a different generated hostname (which landed on .79) and I am back online, so this is no longer urgent for me. Two asks. First, can 69.46.46.41 be investigated and repaired or depooled? If the mapping is deterministic, every other service whose hostname maps to that node is presumably also hard-down, and those owners may not realise the cause is on the edge rather than in their own app. Second, once it is healthy I would like to reclaim my original hostname, which is currently unassigned and shows as available. Happy to share project and service IDs and the exact hostname privately if that helps someone look it up.
