When I pinged Netflix.net and .com there was 100% packet loss and none received.  Ping and tracroute can be used to troubleshoot since ping can test the reachability of a device on the network and trace route is good for tracing network problems, discovering connections failures, and tracking down latency problems.  A ping or trace route command may time out because the target host has been down or unable to be reached or the network path being congested.

Its less confusing and more straight to the point.   Functionality: The app is very ...
