ABSTRACT:
A system identifies transmission routes between a user and a desired destination site on a wide area communications network, such as the Internet. The system then detects transit characteristics for each of the transmission routes. A user can request the level of activity on the routes. Thus, the user can be apprised of the existence of possible congestion in any attempt to access the desired destination site.
