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)
