Network Trouble Shooter
Overview
The
Network Trouble Shooter option provides you with access
to a common network tracing
utility named Traceroute.
Traceroute does exactly what its name
implies, tracing the
route of data from your domain to the server you specify. The
results of
performing a Traceroute show you every server your
packets of information are going to
in order to connect to that
server. The results can indicate if any of the servers along
the way are
causing connection problems by timing out or by
slowing down the data flow. This is
a good tool to use to help
determine if a slow or downed connection is a problem on your
server or
someone else’s server.
