I cannot connect to the game server because their fucking backbone has dropped again.

Why couldn't religious crazies have flown something into their HQ?

I know that they are doing authentication server maintenance tonight. Maybe that is the problem? They won't be done til 2am PST which is like 5am EST. I know logged off and couldn't get back on around 3am server.

Not even getting to Blizzard for the authenticator maintenance to be a problem.

If blizz is the next hop, and the stuff is down for maintenance, you won't see anything there...as expected.

FWIW, I get the same thing

No idea if the auth servers are back up or not, I'm at work and quite firewalled from that kind of activity.

Jubber,

I get that same issue here ( I am in North Georgia, about 10 hours west of you) and I get the same traceroutes. It is an ATT problem. Myself and Kalmalkin work for an ISP but we dont live in the town where we work so we have access to a little more information and tools to check this. ATT frequently does maintenance after midnight that will cut down traffic or route it to another fiberoptic line and then claim the know nothing about it. Unfortunately I dont live close enough to TN to get the new fiber optic service available in Chattanooga so I get stuck with fucking Comcast and their ATT bullshit backbone.

9 level 90s and 10 85s, Damn I need another hobby.

Yeah, this is not the first time I've seen that particular tracert hang-up. I knew what it was as soon as I saw where the last ping landed.

Taking an extended hiatus from gaming

The servers that have .attens.net are Blizzard's servers. They don't reply to tracert requests, so any hops after you reach them will time out. If you can reach the first one with normal latency, that means there aren't any problems between you and Blizzard.

get U-Verse

A traceroute from a Cisco router will also present ASN (Autonomous System Number) data:

It may be Blizzard services, but it's managed through AT&T. Therefore, if anything happens to the connectivity, it's still their fault.

That being said, it's very common to turn off ICMP echo-request and munge up the UDP time to live data that will foil a ping and a traceroute. It's quite probable that the servers that live behind this router were never in fact down at all from a network connectivity standpoint.

And just to throw something in from the for-what-its-worth pile:

Doesn't AT&T host all of battle.net?

Magic 8-ball says: My sources say yes

I believe that is what's going on.

I told the IT guy at work today about running a tracert last night. I was not surprised when he had no clue what I was talking about and stared at me blankly.

May be one of the reasons they're phasing out the position and having everything "fixed" from a remote location.
