Internet Tools - Traceroute

Okidokili, well I had no troubles at all doing this log using http://network-tools.com/ in fact the network-tools web page made it very very simple.

I managed to locate Curtin Uni using the above web site with the following outcome:



I did however get a bit confused when trying to figure out the average time it took to get from the tools site to the server at Curtin but the 2 figures I came up with are 289ms and 96.3ms. Any body who can clarify this for me please feel free to leave a post as maths was never one of my stronger points and obviously still isn't up to today lol.
The IP address or number I came across for Curtin University was 134.7.179.56

Over all I found this task to be quite easy to do and I have to admit, since finding traceroute I have been tracing allot of different places on the web and have come across a few surprises, especially where my Internet goes to, or goes through I should, say before reaching my final destination.
