Brooke,

internet debug tips...

everything else is useless unless you can tracert. Anytime you have a TCPIP connecitivity problem it should be your first reaction. Have to be able to different internetiate connectivity problems from software problems.

to use tracert.

open a dos window.

tracert www.qp2.com

D:\>tracert www.qp2.com

Tracing route to www.qp2.com [208.240.130.216]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

1 10 ms <10 ms <10 ms sesmith-isdn.cisco.com [161.44.98.249]
2 40 ms 30 ms 80 ms rtp-isdn-3.cisco.com [161.44.96.1]
3 30 ms 40 ms 30 ms 161.44.0.98
4 40 ms 30 ms 40 ms rtp-gaza-gw1.cisco.com [161.44.0.35]
5 30 ms 40 ms 40 ms rtp-wall-1.cisco.com [198.92.2.137]
6 40 ms 40 ms 30 ms digex-gw.cisco.com [209.48.178.1]
7 40 ms 40 ms 40 ms rdu2-core1-h2-0-0.atlas.digex.net [209.48.176.5]

8 50 ms 40 ms 40 ms clt1-core2-h1-0.atlas.digex.net [165.117.52.158]

9 50 ms 50 ms 40 ms atl2-core1-s9-0-0.atlas.digex.net [165.117.50.37
]
10 50 ms 50 ms 50 ms 209.49.169.250
11 50 ms 50 ms 50 ms 208.240.130.216

Trace complete.

If the trace route doesn't complete to the target host then you have an internet related outage. Its easy to do and makes life easier when you know why???

I use this every single day.

A site somewhat related is

internetweather.com

a site that tracks the status of many internet backbone networks. cool stuff....
