How do I run this command prompt?

I want to run this command prompt.

tracert domain.name

What do I enter for "domain.name"?

 

for example type tracert www.google.com

you'll see all hops between you and them.

you can also type any IP as a destination

 

The instructions are from this page.

Which domain do I use?

Guys: try these two tests on the OP's system
run tracert domain.name to see if there's a path issue
run ping -f -l nnn domain.name
where nnn is the MTU to be tested. Keep reducing it by 32 until ping runs.
Use that MTU on the router or via Regedit on that system

What about for this command for determing the MTU? Do I just select any random domain?


ping -f -l nnn domain.name




I got it from here.

Error 101 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_RESET): The connection was reset « Encounters with Reality

 

So put "stream.tv" if you are tracing route to that URL.

nnn should be probably kilobytes for send buffer. It says you should start to reduce that number by 32. I don't know how big is your send buffer, but you can try put some number and see what happens.

I hope this helps.


EDIT: I think you will find the smallest send buffer and then you should set that setting in Registry. Now if you are not experienced user you shouldn't do that.
