Notes:

  • # = hop.
  • ms = milliseconds.
  • * = packet loss, due to a number of possible reasons. For example: router or server is down or slow to respond.
  • Traceroute sends 3 packets to the server hosting the domain or IP address and listens for the replies.
  • Traceroute measures the time it takes the packets to go from the Mike's Marketing Tools server, in Dallas, TX, USA, to the host of the domain or IP address you entered.
  • Traceroute displays:
    • the hop number.
    • the response times of each of the 3 packets sent (in milliseconds).
    • the IP address.
    • the host name.
  • Privacy policy: I respect your privacy. As such, Traceroute does not collect or store any of the data entered into the form. All results that you see will disappear once the trace is complete, and when you refresh or leave the page.
