You can also do an ldmping to any site. % ldmping -i 5 -h <upstream> Also you can look at the latencies on the topo charts at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/idd/status/idd/fosTopo.html If you suspect that it's a local network problem, I would contact the network people or you ISP when the problem is occuring. I added you idd-relay, the list isn't very active.
