The only thing I really disliked about UO is the difference a connection made. I have decent DSL. Is there a command I should try?

[Chaos]

Are you using a router...

[Faxanadu]

Yeah I take it that's the problem..

[Chaos]

Well that is were I would start seeing your first hop .. (from computer to router) seem to have a problem and the rest looks pretty good..

[Faxanadu]

I appreciate the help. What should I try first? Generally i'd google an error or problem and see how others have addressed the issue. I'm not sure how to change the initial hop.

[Chaos]

BEST GAME EVER
before UO

I thought that I was the only one with that game............. I remember it was like 50 bucks ..

[Faxanadu]

Yeah it was a kick ass game. lol. I'm going to try rebooting router. It is wireless but missing the first hop doesn't seem right.

When traceroute shows the no replies like you have, means the ping (icmp) packet is being denied a return path to your computer or a router has poor implementation of their tcp/ip stack somewhere along the way...

It is typical nothing to worry over...
