Traceroute is used to trace the path between you and the remote host as a series of nodes and the links between them. Typically it displays three latency measurements for each node and looks up node names if it is available. Under Windows it's called "tracert," as in the examples below. If you use Linux, substitute "traceroute" for "tracert." Here's the command used to start a traceroute. Go to your command prompt and type in the command like below and hit enter.
