Back in November I.
released a video about utilizing the ping command on a Windows computer system. The reason for that was to reveal a simple approach to inspect if a website is down or if there is an issue on your end..

Utilizing the ping command in the command prompt window on your computer system may seem like something only computer technology instructors and trainees should do, but the truth is that any teacher or trainee can benefit from knowing how to do it. Likewise, running a traceroute may appear like something only a computer system science instructor or trainee must know how to do, but its really something that anybody can benefit from understanding how to do..
A traceroute reveals you the hops or connection points in between your computer and the location (typically a site). This is an interesting method for students to see where worldwide traffic is going to and coming from. If theyre surprised by what they see, Run a few traceroutes with your trainees and see. See this brief video in which I demonstrate how to perform a traceroute..
