Ah :-)

"Autonomous System numbers (ASNs) are globally unique identifiers for Autonomous Systems."

I'd also add some information as to where/why the origin of the trace route is - I'm not sure how useful it is to have it come from some random location in France for me.

I plan to add multiple locations over the next week or so, you will be able to select where you want the source to be, or have multiple sources :)

ASN: autonomous system number, it's basically the ISP your traffic is routing through.

Thanks for the idea, will add some tool tips to the page, also I plan to have a link on the ASN so you can see the more detailed ISP information.

Clickable link in the stats page, added :)
