Thanks for your help in advance! Additional delay while adding a hop is to be expected, no matter how fast your network or router is. You only added about 1ms on average, which is about right. The lost packet in the second traceroute might be due to a full/half-duplex mismatch between one of the NICs and the switch. -- Chris Dillon - cdillon(at)wolves.k12.mo.us FreeBSD: The fastest, most open, and most stable OS on the planet - Available for IA32, IA64, AMD64, PC98, Alpha, and UltraSPARC architectures - PowerPC, ARM, MIPS, and S/390 under development - http://www.freebsd.org Q: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation.
