Please log in for more thread options I have a plain home broadband connection that uses pppoe. When I ping or traceroute the IP address my broadand router shows that my ISP has assigning me today from a machine on the public internet, am I testing the wire all the way to my router or is the reply from equipment in the CO? I think the answer is that it's an end-to-end test, but it's nagging me. -- a d y k e s @ p a n i x . c o m Harrison for Congress in NY 13CD www.harrison06.com Don't blame me. I voted for Gore.

Please log in for more thread options A test from outside, like http://www.traceroute.org , should test all the way to your router. You could verify it by turning your router's ICMP reply function off (many routers have that setting). -- Robert | |||||||||||||||||||

AD, You are pinging the dsl router - unless you are (1) running a PPPoE client on a connected PC or the dsl router is bridged and you have another router attached (running PPPoE) . P2E Al Dykes Wrote: > I have a plain home broadband connection that uses pppoe.
