Hi jp

Wow, I should never have done a tracer for those 2 sites. www.above.net - 9 hops, no dropped packets, everything <60ms
w3health.com - 9 hops, 1 completely dropped hop (8), everything around 30ms.

So how hard is it for my cableco to change the routing to something more acceptable? It seems that Sprint is the culprit in my case - does my cableco have to use Sprint because of a financial arrangement or is it something else? Don't worry, I'll be phoning them!

Gee, I tried above.net and get lost packets and even a 1342 ms at amin2-mae-west-oc3.sjc.above.net.

At techstocks I do better.
