IT Employment
I am having a problem connecting to several site hosted by the same domain provider. When I pind the site the name resolves to the IP but the times out. I did a tracert and it makes it about 10 hops and dies. Is this a problem with the network, provider or me?
Thanks.

Hi,
10+ Hops seems a bit excessive, as this says the route is not being finalised. Considering you can ping the site and then it times out, I would be inclined to say they might have a router or switch down which they are unaware of.
It wouldn't hurt to contact them and ask them to confirm this for you.
Hope it's that simple,
:-)

He is right about that. If you can ping your
isp and its DNS servers thats all you need. So if you cant get out past them or a few sites then it would be your service provider or thier backbone.
If its only a few sites you cant access but can access everything else then it is possibe that those sites are the problem.
