Is Anybody Else's Internet Service Goin Slow ??? Plus, Tracert Question:

[WillyT]

If my ISP is having problems, will it be refected in every hop count on a trace route??? IOW - As long as my end is slow, all other speed measurements will be slow as well, correct???

My cross country tracert:

1. It's you ... over 1 second to the first hop is BS

I would expect something under 100 MS.

2. Our networked Internet connection at work has been fried for two days

Don't know the technical details, though
