Re: Explain This Plus-Net! 138 Ping

Have you checked your exchange? It could be overloaded (like mine is)
http://usertools.plus.net/exchanges/

Is what I get. But their ping figure is crazy. If I ping several sites based in the UK. I get an average of about 42 ms. If I ping sites in the US they come in at about 167ms

the London Speedtest.net Server always has a bad ping,  Try another server.

Re: Explain This Plus-Net! 138 Ping

Hi there,
Can you post a traceroute of a server you're having problems with?
You do this by opening a command prompt window (start > run >cmd), then typing tracert www.domain.co.uk and pressing enter.
This will point us in the right direction of the problem.

Type in Tracert www.domain.co.uk > C:/Tracert.txt
The Tracert File will be in your local disk.

Sorry, instead of domain.co.uk I need you to enter the server you're having problems with (I used domain.co.uk as an example).
