What kind of a screwed-up traceroute is *this*?

traceroute to www.poggs.com (193.109.197.25), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets

ISPs fucking with data packets was the bane of my life a few weeks back. Apparently we fell off a white list so they were appending a shitload of annoying http info to our packets... thus screwing up the game data... BASTARDS.

Heh - your packet got routed via Esher :)

You should see the traceroute on T-Mobile, which seems to route a packet via the seven levels of hell as it bounces around their european infrastructure before it excapes into the wild with barelly enough ttl left to make it across the atlantic :(

I'm firmly convinced Voda has the only decent data service; but then I'm equally conviced this is because it's bloody expensive to make extensive use of it.
