hi Patola, the reason for me to use traceroute on N900 is that i would like to know which AP(GPRS) it connects to, and to make sure it is my mobile provider(which provides correct mobile internet services).

Guys, i wonder if it is possible to connect to a 3rd party AP rather than your mobile provider? or is there this kind of 3rd party AP available??? for example, for faster connection or a connection allows for VOIP if your ISP doesn't allow it???

Many thanks
