mtr, another network diagnostic tool

mtr is a network diagnostic tool that combine both traceroute and ping in one easy to use tool. As mtr starts, it investigates the network connection between the host mtr runs on and HOSTNAME. by sending packets with
purposely low TTLs. It continues to send packets with low TTL, noting the response time of the intervening routers. This allows mtr to print the response percentage and response times of the internet route to HOSTNAME. The good thing about mtr is, it will run until we ask it to quit by pressing 'q'. That means we will have a live traceroute and ping that will keep updating until we ask it to stop.

To use mtr, just type:
$ mtr HOSTNAME

example:
$ mtr www.google.com

It will display the a few statistics about ping and packets, enough for us to do some basic network diagnostics work.
