Wow, bright colors.
Hi,
I lease a dedicated server and it's usually fine. However, lately it seems slow. The hosting company says all is well, my isp says all is well (and it appears so using
this), and yet the fastest file transfer I can get is 40kbs or thereabouts.
I ran a trace from the server to my own ip and the results seem to match this
http://network-tools.com/default.asp...=207.36.86.166
Starts bogging down near qwest.net
This one, however, is more in line with my windows trace, kinda uninformative (at the time I'm typing this there were no results).

[4 hops with no response; assuming we hit a firewall that blocks pings]
The host tech support is only two hops from the server so naturally there isn't much to get in the way.
So, the question is, what can we infer from these results and is there anything I can do about any of it? I do 3 and 4 gig file transfers and I need all the speed I can get.
Thanks for your insights.
