It should say something like 'bagu-t2cam1-v126-network.virginmedia.net' on one of the lines of information. I mean know you're actually in or near Baguley, but that isn't the same as being served by Baguley.... You could be on a Manchester server - it is a complex network.
I did this. I got 2 Baguley hits, but also got a few time outs and some other stuff (gfd? redb?).

" 3 5 ms 7 ms 6 ms bagu-t2cam1-a-ge92.network.virginmedia.net
4 7 ms 15 ms 8 ms bagu-t3core-1a-ae2-0.network.virginmedia.net "
