I can now add that I am now on another (cabled) network connection,
also using Verizon but a different, older Westell DSL modem. Between
the computer and the Westell modem is a Cisco 3500XL managed switch.
Here, the average ping time is 100 ms and nslookup works fine using
either the domain name or the IP address. Tracerte, however, still
cannot supply any information beyond the DSL modem here.
Is the eCS tracerte application somehow incompatible with the Verizon
network?
