running a tracert command is the same as the 'ping' command; ping tells you the time it takes to send a successful packet of information to a given point, while tracert does the same thing while telling you where it has stopped for directions along the way.

The time taken to each point is not so important - it's the consistency that is usually more useful. I've shown my results below - you can see that there are no spikes or wild numbers in the figures. Seeing something odd in yours might indicate something.

Are you on Windows?

Go to Start -> Run -> cmd

Type in tracert www.google.com and press enter.

That's in the black box that says C:\Windows...cmd.exe, right?

Here are my results (with servers/ip addresses removed from each line for obvious reasons):

My result says:

Routenverfolgung zu www.l.google (IP) über maximal 30 Abschnitte.

1 Allgemeiner Fehler
Ablaufverfolgung beendet.

Ok, now how to translate that...
Tracing to google over max. 30 parts.

1 General error.
Tracing finished.

:confused:
