Update of my previous post of not liking the way spam was not being stopped by Cox

I just wanted to update my previous posts when I was so discouraged by the amount of spam so many of us were receiving for several months. I have been so extremely happy to have not received any spam...

I duplicated this traceroute, and my results also show a slight increase in latency at 68.1.1.167 (your hop 5). However, this is normal ICPM deprioritization. Your trace hits the Amazon Web Services (AWS) servers at hop 6, and the timeouts after this point are to be expected. Not all Amazon Web Services servers return ping requests; they block ICMP packets for network security reasons. -Becky, Cox Support Forums Moderator
