# Enter ? for additional hints on searching ARIN's WHOIS database.
ALL RoadRunner IP addresses - that I am aware off - are registered with the RoadRunner headquarters as the address. As such, applications that do graphical representations of traceroutes on a world map, will always place your "home" IP address in Virginia. Obviously it is not the PHYSICAL location of the IP address, it's just where the IP address is registered to. |

Just looking at the second to last hop in his LQ report shows it's close to Reseda, CA. |
