Hi just a quickie, lately Ive had alot of packet loss on online games so I've been doing a little tracerouting using the tracert command .
The first hop is always this ip 10.218.111.*** and it shows lots of ploss.
Is this normal for a a first hop? as I dont recall ever seeing one like this before?
I did a whois on the IP and its some iana blackhole thingy, what is it?
Running windows xp sp2 all updates, zonealarm firewall and pc is straight into an aging terrayon terrajet.
I was just wondering about the first hop because im sure it used to have a much higher first ip segment around 180, I guess the 10 is a result of the speed upgrades?

It was probably a 172. address. They are used as well as the 10. addresses.
