Tracing route to w2.rc.vip.dcn.yahoo.com [216.109.112.135]

2 * * * Request timed out.
3 * * * Request timed out.
4 * * * Request timed out.
5 * * * Request timed out.
I'm behind a very restrictive net right now so echo's don't work. You'll probably see two or three hops before the timeouts begin. Let the admin people know the last functional hop in the list.
Do the same thing while the net's working and you'll get an idea of what's normal.
