No. I wanted the above two commands typed into Terminal, then provide the results here. The dig command tests your DNS servers; the domain being looked up can be anything. The traceroute shows me the path between you and Speakeasy, with timings at each step. With that information, we can usually figure out where the slow-down is occurring... then decide how to approach fixing it. Those are essentially the same types of tests that the Verizon tech ran. But he's concerned with only your connectivity within Verizon's network. I want to examine the whole picture -- the path through the network, through Verizon's network, into your home, into your Mac. - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
