How to Really Diagnose and Understand Network Issues in Linux using Ping, Traceroute and TCPDump

You might think you know the ping and traceroute command but how well do you really know them. In this short video you will learn to understand the packets and the return values but decoding them with TCPDump. You will see traceroute and the TTL in action in the captured packets and that UDP is used by default Linux and not ICMP for traceroute

And here I thought that I knew ping.
So much ignorance on my part.
Thanks Andrew, this is what I really needed.
Sometimes, everyone needs someone who just shows one what one's lacking.

Can you do please a video on how to troubleshoot DSL pppoe connections? I found that vast majority of linux distros have nonfunctional setup wizards for my ISP that only provides the username and password and the rest the wizard needs to figure out.
On Linux Mint and Windows 10 the Network Manager establishes the correct setup, but for the vast majority of other distros it simply does not work for my ISP.
