The problem with [[Traceroute|traceroutes]] nowdays is that most CPE and routing devices filter out unsolicited UDP packets, some even DROP the incoming packet so that it receives no icmp-port-unreachable reply, thus giving the famous * * *.

  mtr combines the functionality of the '[[traceroute]]' and 'ping' programs in a single network diagnostic tool.
+
 
+
  As mtr starts, it investigates the network connection between the host mtr runs on and a user-specified destination host. After it determines the address of each network
+
  hop between the machines, it sends a sequence ICMP ECHO requests to each one to determine the quality of the link to each machine. As it does this, it prints running
+
  statistics about each machine.

+
=== Linux ===
+
 
+
Some distributions (including [[http://www.gentoo.org/ gentoo]]) allow you to run the [[traceroute]] command from the command line as follows:
+
 
+
  traceroute -T -p 80 domain.tld
+
