Recently this Class C stopped working in that we were unable to browse certain areas of the Internet. Performing a tracerout indicated that the packets ended at an address in the US.

As our ISP is IHUG we contacted them and they promised to look into this for us. After numerous calls we have never been able to get an answer from IHUG.

Interesting. I'm not sure who you spoke to at IHUG, but speaking on behalf of the engineering department, which incorporates _all_ network routing, this is the first we've heard of it. :) Sounds like IHUG business is not escalating problems correctly. If you can tell me who you were dealing with, I shall Have Words with them. Also, please accept my personal apologies, on behalf of IHUG, for the lack of action.

The are of the opinion that the address is being used by someone in the US illegally. This was two months ago and we still have had no results despite phoning them twice weekly.

Unique - I've just done some traceroutes from various local and remote route-servers to your network, and it all appears quite nominal. Can you send me an e-mail with some examples of the traces you mentioned earlier? Send your mail to either jsr(a)jsr.com or monolith(a)ihug.co.nz.

I would appreciate your help in locating the correct people to discuss this with.

No problem at all, you've managed to reach exactly the right person, by (no pun intended) a very circular route. JSR -- John S Russell - IHUG Engineering Manager --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
