Visual Traceroute Application
The best free visual geographical traceroute application that works on Linux (lots of restrictions, I know) is here at YouGetSignal.com. Even if traceroute is blocked by your ISP, this will allow you to bypass this by starting the search from DreamHost’s servers.
If you don’t know much about traceroute, read about it. It’s a tool that needs to be in your arsenal, for everything from satisfying curiosity to diagnosing network failures to tracking down spammers. You don’t need to be a poweruser to make use of it.
On M$ Windows, for historical (8.3) reasons, it’s called tracert, apparently, or maybe pathping.
I gave you the StumbleUpon “wrapper” page. As discussed in 2006, it’s a system worth using.
