If you use traceroute, make sure to use tcp (traceroute -T or tcptraceroute) for the probes. And you should understand how traceroute works, so you don't flip out if/when you see packet loss somewhere in the trace. Routers usually prioritize forwarding traffic & give a much lower priority to responding with 'time to live expired' msgs. In other words, traceroute packet loss at an intermediate hop is not an indicator of a problem if there is no packet loss further on. Regards, Lee
