Brilliant!
This is a great little utility for trying to diagnose problems with your ISP. Would be better if it could show packet loss too!
Simple and neat
It's actually rather neat and I did not encounter any instability so far. Great app!
Great idea, but still too buggy
I was excited when I saw this app, as I am a huge fan of apps like visual route. This app however is a bit disappointing. It's slow, kludgy to use after the trace completes, only shows the final hop not everything in the middle of the trace, and whatever db is being used for ip geolocation is very, very inaccurate. So, nice idea but very flawed execution. This is more like a visual ping than anything else.

Great visual traceroute
Works well on iPad, only thing I can think of is that it needs jump numbers on the pins so that the order is clear on map view.
Would pay a but for an app that had this and every other network utility that other apps have, especially if on iPad and iPhone.

Unresolved Detour
This is a pretty straight forward implementation of a visual tracert program for the iPad. The maps are clear and easy to read, if a little plain. The info button used to return to the address list from the map is a bit small and unobtrusive, barely noticeable, but that's an aesthetic choice for the map I guess.
My only gripe is that it seems to map all unresolved addresses, and perhaps some resolved addresses with questionable locations, to a Plum Grove township in Kansas. I think it would be better to just leave unresolved or unknown addresses off the map, or at a previously mapped location if that's not feasible.

Free but needs work
OK so free is good, but this sometimes reflects the quality of the app as well. In this case it is OK, but the app crashed the first time it was used and displays a lot of instabilities on the iPad that any QA testing should have covered.
Good but needs performance improvement.
The app works well and it's very useful being able to do a visual trace route from the iPad, but the performance when using maps is a little poor.
I hope this is improved in a future update.

Nice graphics. Simply useful
Excellent Networking Resource Program
Excellent product, easy to use, very accurate and the visual aspect helps pinpoint where all nodes are throughout the planet, the best one I've used so far. Can't really complain especially since it's FREE
Interesting program!
Maybe there's a misspelled word in the app, but it's fascinating seeing the hops to the websites you frequent. Thanks for a decent free window on the Internet.
