Re: ping and tracert networking question

That doesn't fit the given facts, unless you are claiming that tracert causes a reverse DNS to be attempted on 10.0.0.1, but what would be the point of doing that?

the antenna is highly directional
It has to be. It's pulling in an 802.11 signal from over a mile away.

....strong indication that you are seeing the rooftop radio at 10.0.0.1... any DNS operation has to contact a server on the Internet
It sounds like you are saying tracert 10.0.0.1 causes a reverse DNS operation to be attempted on 10.0.0.1

Are you quite sure of that? It seems pointless to do that.


Quote:
If they let you access the admin UI for the radio, you could probably tell a whole lot more.
For sure.


Quote:
If there's an option to use your own radio
No. That's not their business model.


Quote:
I assume you tried ubnt/ubnt to log into the radio?
That is the default for this model radio, and it was changed during installation. As mentioned previously, I do not have the password.


Quote:
Did the utility tell you anything?
No. See attached screenshot.


Quote:
the fact that you can bring up a login screen is another strong indication that you are seeing the rooftop radio at 10.0.0.1 ... A bridge will typically have a layer 3 IP address, but it doesn't follow that it is going to show up in tracert.
If 10.0.0.1 is the radio, then it is showing up in tracert.


Quote:
If you are using Windows, try the pathping command -- it is more informative than tracert
More informative in what way? See below:

Code:
C:\>pathping 10.0.0.1

Tracing route to 10.0.0.1 over a maximum of 30 hops
