TraceRoute
A traceroute is a computer network tool that is used to find out the exact route taken by a packet across an IP network.
Using this system you can see exactly where this information travels before it actually reaches its desired destination.
Many web hosting companies do not have their own data centers and hire servers from much larger companies such as ‘The Planet’.
When using your Laptops you can use the Traceroute and see exactly were it leads to for example sending a packet might return the following example result :DNS server, exchange server, the websites hosting company server, the actual server(‘the planet’) which can sometimes provide very interesting results.
