Ok, using the link you provided I found a speed test. I did that... got some results, but not what I got from doing a trace check. All it told me was my speed from a - b. Not if I was loosing data, which would impact the quality of sound I could produce.

Using Neo Trace, it broke down each node, and packets sent and received. 3 of the 18 nodes there was 3 nodes that didn't respond.

Say for instance I go to the command prompt window (old DOS) and type "ping www.bdsmlibrary.com" it will send back something like;

pinging bdsmlbrary.com [67.159.5.224] with 32 bytes of data:

reply from 67.159.5.224: bytes=32 time=235ms TTL=51
reply from 67.159.5.224: bytes=32 time=217ms TTL=51
reply from 67.159.5.224: bytes=32 time=241ms TTL=51
reply from 67.159.5.224: bytes=32 time=249ms TTL=51

Ping statistics for 67.159.224:
Packets sent = 4, Recieved = 4, Lost = 0 <0% loss>,
Apporoximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 217, Maximum = 249ms, average = 235ms


So when I do the node check with Neo Trace, it shows what nodes loose what packets. I want to know if I can choose different nodes, or if I am just stuck.
