Xr1000 Gaming router, Anyway to look at history or do a traceroute to find hidden servers?
I have an XR 1000.
I wanted to know if there is any way I can figure out through internet history or any tools available in the firmware to figure out what EA servers I am connecting to. I want to setup custom routes to the servers to get my ping times down. I just need the actual data because EA notoriously likes to hide there server locations?

Have to do this through the router because the device I am launching the game from is a Playstation console.
If it was a computer I could just do a traceroute on there but that is not the case in my situation.

What game is it that you're looking to find servers for? The best way to do this currently would be to use Ping Heatmap to see all available servers. You can then use Geo-filter to ensure you're only connecting to the particular servers that offer you the best connection.
Thanks for the reply, I wound up getting the information a different way.
