Is the tweaking the reason all my saved line quality tests have changed from Fail on East Coast and West Coast to Pass?

If there is a bad router en-route, but no packet loss to your IP, then the test is no longer considered a fail as although the router maybe a bit screwed up in terms of its response to ICMP (which can indicate a loaded router), it may still be passing packets onward ok.

Good. That is what I was thinking you had done but wanted to be sure. It was sort of misleading before (at least for me). Thanks! Nice improvement.

Tools page is neat and nice looking now.

What's with the Port-scan? I haven't used it in awhile so I don't how long it has been offline. Is it coming back?
