Run a traceroute from your machine

Shared web hosting (including SafeCadence's own host) generally blocks ICMP traceroute outbound. Run it locally:

macOS / Linux

traceroute safecadence.com

Windows

tracert safecadence.com

What you're looking for

  • Each hop shows a router on the path. Latency should increase but not wildly.
  • Timeouts (* * *) on middle hops are often just ICMP rate-limiting on routers — not a problem.
  • Timeouts at the END indicate the target is blocking ICMP — often normal for web servers.

For a browser-based alternative

Try bgp.tools or DigiCert's looking glass. Both are free.
