β†’Network latency diagnosis
β†’Routing problem detection
β†’ISP performance analysis
β†’Path optimization
β†’Connectivity troubleshooting
β†’CDN routing verification

Tips & Best Practices

πŸ’‘

High latency at one hop that carries through to subsequent hops indicates the bottleneck

πŸ’‘

Some routers block traceroute β€” seeing "***" doesn't always mean a problem

πŸ’‘

Compare traceroutes at different times to identify intermittent issues

Frequently Asked Questions
