Note that the IP header is only large enough for nine such routes. Many hosts ignore or discard this option. If your ISP supports this you can see the hop's taken to reach paradise,then you can test each hop with a ping to check latency.

I'll probably ring up both telstraclear and telecom in the morning and give them rockets about their incompetence. But it was mentioned on either /. or LWN earlier today, I can't remember which. So I'm not at all surprised that the connection is flakey. I'll get it for you if you want. Thanks for the offer, but I managed to download it successfully some time later.

I've been getting it for two nights now, and I'm getting sick of it. Wesley Parish Does ifconfig show any errors, or does a 3 fingered salute to the router help?? I'm on dialup - one of the people supporting telstra-clear's gambling on the investment markets and government bailouts, I expect. ifconfig: ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol inet addr:210.246.27.44 P-t-P:202.0.46.83 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1159 errors:1 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1379 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:3 RX bytes:641637 (626.5 KiB) TX bytes:196778 (192.1 KiB) Looks okay to me. I'm thinking it's probably also telecom's gambling on the investment markets and government bailouts - ie, their total lack of interest in maintaining their copper megamiles for which they are so happy to take an arm and a leg for.
