Alright, so I did a traceroute to my domain (www.woworg.com) Because I could not connect

This is the trace route, eh what exactly does this mean? I see that it timed out twice, is this the reason I cannot connect to my domain?
 
It means it timed out at the last two hops either due to it being down or a firewall blocking it .

But I'd recommend asking in the Networking forum :)
 
Yeah, these days, a lot of routers, especially those inside a company (as opposed to 'public' routers) are either going to be firewalled or simply ignore the tracert packets. If you can get your hands on tcptraceroute, you might have better luck.
 
Well, I still can not connect to this domain, it just times out, and FF gives me a Problem loading page, I am not the only one with this problem. But if I use a proxy from some place close to the server up north, I can connect to it fine. Any clue why?

Thanks in advance
 
Well I did a traceroute and got similar, but slightly stranger results:

Code:

Trace complete.

The timeouts dont happen until the last few hops. And then they are intermittent. If this were a firewall or router blocking/ignoring ICMP, you'd see it more consistently for that hop. In the above output, each host that timed out also responded as well. In that case, it seems to me that they may be having some technical issues, or they are just massively overloaded.

I'm also wondering if they are having some sort of routing problem. Notice that the last 3 hops have the same IP? Seems kinda odd. Suffice it to say that ur host is having some issues.

Yeah Im at school atm, and it works here... Yet it does not work at home... Im begining to think its one of my ISP's router or something.

Sort of...it would most likely be a router at the other end, one of the ones giving sporadic results. I too get bizarre results:

Hop 16/17 is No responce, Hop 15/17 finds IP but dose not resolve domain.

I still think it's a problem on your end, since i can still get to it.
