I'm trying to solve a networking problem and need help running a traceroute on CachyOS using the Fish shell. I've looked around for guidance, but what I found just doesn't seem to work with either Fish or Bash. Can someone provide a clear example of the command with the correct syntax and options? I would really appreciate any help!

I searched for the command and finally found this as a solution.
https://fishshell.com/docs/current/search.html?q=traceroute
fish shell: traceroute -> tracepath
example: tracepath yomotherboard.com
I hope I was able to help, even if it was late.
It might help if you share the command syntax you’ve tried so others can give specific suggestions. Just a heads up, if you typed `traceroute google.com` and it didn't work, we can troubleshoot from there!
Have you tried using `--help` or checking the manual with `man traceroute`? Sometimes those commands can clarify if it's even installed. Just a note, I also ran into issues where it said 'fish: Unknown command: traceroute' when I tested.
Yeah, I attempted `traceroute --help` and `man traceroute`, but it still returned that unknown command error in Fish.
I found a guide that mentions trying 'advanced traceroute [google.com](http://google.com) in warp terminal', but I had no luck either. Anyone else had success with that approach?
I gave that command a shot and ran into the same issue: 'fish: Unknown command: traceroute'. Looks like we need to dig deeper!
I did try `traceroute google.com`, but I also experimented with a bunch of options from different examples I found online. I keep getting an error saying 'fish: Unknown command: traceroute'. I even tried `tracert`, but that’s a Windows thing, so I expect that wouldn’t work.
