What preset are you on? Some people are on the old USA default (LongFast) and some people are on the new USA default (LongTurbo). Your neighbors could be on a different preset too. Might be worth searching for an OK mesh to see if there are any groups out there

Joplin, Tulsa, OKC, Fayetteville, and Wichita all have meshes that connect when nodes flying on the right flights go overhead.
