Ways to backtrack

Well i wanted to know a way to retrace and backtrack conections. In the latest days i am getting higher internet speed that i should sometimes double or triple so i want to know how i am connecting is there a reason is it posible to get direct connecyions with lag zero on all my equipments

>>11715 >Remember to do some research before asking questions. No one wants to answer a question that a simple search can already resolve. It seems like the term you should search for is traceroute

>>15240 I see you don't know i thought i was posting on tech with people that had more knowledge then myself. Let me refrase is there a way to connect directly to any server and have higher conection speed then commercial networks. There are a few ways i can think but is not enough as a theory >my equipments are somehow directly connected to servers so i'm not limited to the ISP limits >my equipments are being tracked and the organization tracking me is conecting all my equipments directly to track me,using the mac address since those can't be changed I won't deny i have made some stuff that will warrant tracking me and recollecting everything about me

>>15238 >>15240's right. Check traceroute output, and see which hops are between you and the server. It's possible you've got a direct connection to 1 server (though ridiculously unlikely). What's more likely is your ISP's having trouble throttling your bandwidth. I get routinely almost double the download bandwidth I pay for (upload bandwidth's another story).

>>15250 My conection get double or triple the conection i pay and the download speeds are insane. My pcs and cellphone use the old wifi normally the max speed i should get should be around 50 mbps yet i get speeds of 900 mbps to 1.5 gbps which aren't available in my country to private usage. I tested and got a 20 Gb file in seconds and the file wasn't damaged and worked fine. The test shows i'm getting direct connections to anything since they make only 2 steps of what should normally be 16 steps.

>>15251 Very weird. Which country is this, if you don't mind?

>>15243 >is there a way to connect directly to any server and have higher conection speed then commercial networks. Wat? Like a direct connection or a LAN? are you looking for a communication protocol to use over standard TCP/IP that will make your "internetz faster"? "Internet speed" is such a subjective term... Connection speed to what? Your ISP? Reach out to your ISP or pay more. Is jitter or latency the concern? What is the traffic profile? Have you enabled QoS on the LAN. I think you need to google LAN and WAN and learn what role your ISP plays in home networking... The way to bypass your ISP is to run a cable to your server.

>>15251 It almost sounds like some node is buffering and forwarding everything along but it's opaque to the traceroute/ping. Basically you have that speed along the "last leg" but that doesn't represent your connection to the rest of the internet. Just a speculation though and if true it should leave signs in your load times, the first GET you make to a server you don't normally connect to would have a normal rtt since the opaque node needs to execute the GET while ping would "bounce off" the middle node and show very small times. The physical notion of what you're suggesting isn't possible, the network just plain old doesn't (and can't) work like that.

>>15243 You ARE connecting directly to a server. Your ISPs server, which is connected to a distributor server for your country which in turn is connected to another server. You can't go around your ISP.

>>15238 >>15243 >Well i wanted to know a way to retrace and backtrack conections. So your equipments are directly connected into the WAN or is it even less (like layer 2)? This means you probably can access the gateway equipment interfaces of the ISP (although I advice not to) if they're not set up to block you by default (since it is the same subnet) and that you can also access other people's gateway addresses (or routers) mapped to their IP address on that same subnet as you (which means you can ipscan all the IP but this would notify them of your scan activity so beware and I again advice not to do this). It's easy, just set up a firewall log or any kind of log over your router or OS router. You can see the dst=IP/port src=IP/port on the logs and you can probably also monitor the other forms of connections like ICMP/IGMP but I advice to just block these and those subnet IPs and enforce a proper ingress filtering rule by adding ranges into your # ipset list and only leaving the gateway address active (for layer 2 there is a chance that your IP would be different every time). I remember setting up some form of detection over my router before which lets me know if someone in the same subnet had "pinged" or "DDoSed" my IP and devices or at least tried to access my Wimax equipment (which had pretty soykaftily implemented security that you could be ddosed or hacked by anyone in the subnet that's why it's already discontinued everywhere). >my equipments are being tracked and the organization tracking me is conecting all my equipments directly to track me,using the mac address since those can't be changed Do you have proof/logs like your WAN IPs and their allotted MACs changing? Perhaps you're just misunderstanding the data you saw? Always put it in a log file and save it or take screenshots, there may be times that you might want to review the data again in future. >>15610 >You ARE connecting directly to a server. Pretty much this, the OP could probably even set up a bunch of servers from that equipment unless it's just one of those special internet provider equipment for that particular area which explains the ridiculous amount of bandwidth.
