Using Traceroute

Traceroute is a computer network diagnostic tool for displaying the route (path), and measuring transit delays, of packets across an Internet Protocol (IP) network. This section shows how to run Traceroute, and how to interpret the results.
Running Traceroute

To run the Traceroute utility, proceed as follows.

    Open a Windows Command Prompt window.
    At the command prompt, type, tracert ngaugeforum.co.uk

to examine the the domain name and extension that you would like to trace a route to).
It may take a few seconds to respond, but this command will give a traceroute from your computer to the destination you selected.
