Suppose eBay or PayPal is down and you're not sure if it's the site or your own connection? Aside from running to a forum and asking, what steps do you take? Do you run traceroutes and ping sites to check its accessibility?

I'll use www.tracert.com to check if the problem is with the site or if it's with something else. It will let you checks a sites response time from up to 10 other locations. I'll just select 10 locations from around the US and see what the response times are. If responce times are posted I know the problem probably unique to my ISP.
