[vox-tech] Why I'll Never Be a Network Admin Guy

[Marc Hasbrouck]

Well, you might want to do a traceroute (tracert for
Windows fans) to the domain to see how many hops it's
taking. I did a trace route, and through my firewall
to jenipurr.com through your firewall, it took 17
hops. So, there are 15 hops between the firewalls.
I've attached the tracert output. The times through
some of the nodes is rather slow. ATT may have some
issues.

Yes, I did do internet tech support.
