When my internet is slow, my first inclination is traceroute (mainly so I can complain to comcast is it's their fault which it usually is), which presumably would show what was happening.
- andre3k1 16y agoI wouldn't consider your behavior normal. :) The parent makes a valid claim.
- electromagnetic 16y agoI've only done traceroute a couple of times, normally when my internet is crawling at a bizarre time of day. I expect some slow down at primetime when everyone is home from work and school, I don't expect it when I'm up at 5-6am.
- jberryman 16y agoMore than once a traceroute has shown traffic stopped at my home router, and a walk outside and around the house showed the comcast man fiddling with the junction box. No knock on the door or "hey, I'm going to be yanking the cable out of your house. hope you saved that file you were editing in vim" I mostly sometimes remember to use gnu screen now.
