Hi guys,

I was just wondering if anyone could advice me on how I could do a reverse
traceroute to my network from my network by command line or any other method
other than the usual web portals. What I am trying to do is establish packet
loss and latency of my ISP's and by just doing a ping and traceroute from my
network doesn't seem to be really accurate on hops coming back to my
network.

Any help will be really appreciated. Thanks

Bob
