Icann connects via los nettos, plus some other providers as well. Looking at the traffic over our infrastructure it looks like 'reasonable' traffic levels. The addresses where the traceroutes stop are the Icann boundaries to LN and others... (ps everything looks ok here with site too but it is very close, response is fine)

I _can_ ping www.iana.org, can't traceroute to it, and the actual web page
eventually came up very slowly (long delay). Traceroutes die with either:
