Wow, ping Gotapex.

[hapoo]

i ping gotapex at only 12ms average. I don't recall pinging any server at such low times. Its only 6 hops away which helps. Even my ISP pings higher.

[ShawnLee]

Hmm... I get low 26, high 29, average 27.

12? You're not at the servers are you?
Shoot... I'm 13 hops away.

[Hiro]

109ms to ping gotapex, 30 hops away. :P

at 12ms, what the hell are you complaining about? If you're going across the internet, that's a great response time.

besides that, ping will only tell you so much going across the internet. Same as tracert.

I'd ping from work, but they've turned it off.

My bad. I'm in tech support, so everything that comes in here is flagged as a complaint. ;)

Okay I know I'm going to sound like a n00b, but how would I do this? I'm assuming I'd ping from a command prompt, but IDK G|A?'s ip addy.

How does one find out the number of hops? I assume not build into the ping command...

Applications-> Utilities-> Newtork Utility. You've got a bunch of great little tools in there, including Traceroute.
