a) it should never touch an eclipse server, it'll go through their 
routers ;)

b) other option is goto www.whatismyip.com and email me the IP 
privately and i'll check it for you. Traceroute is probably easier 
though.

This is a sample traceroute from my Zen ADSL line to google.com...

--------------------------
dsl-gw>traceroute www.google.com
Translating "www.google.com"...domain server (212.23.8.1) (212.23.8.6) 
(212.23.6.35) (212.23.3.11)

Translating "www.google.com"...domain server (212.23.8.1) [OK]

Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to www.google.akadns.net (66.102.11.104)

(this is done from my router - so yours will look slightly different)

Hop 1 will most likely be your router address (either internal or 
external), you want to look at the 2nd/3rd hop really - as you can see 
here, hop 1 and 2 for me are routers at Zen (hence the domain name 
ending zen.net.uk - yours should say 'eclipse.net.uk' at the end).

Hope this all makes sense.
