# How do I trace global routing congestion to net? Tool: Global Routing Subcategory: Usage question ## Conversation ### oharboe How can I trace global routing congestion to the net that is causing the problem? I have routing congestion on top of my macro, but I'm struggling to find out which net is causing the problem. I *think* the problem is that some pin is on the wrong side of the macro and that a net is being routed around the macro. ![image](https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenROAD/assets/2798822/29c9571b-1fe1-48a0-b70c-b73b151f7d3f) Clicking on the routing congestion doesn't leave me with much of a clue to track down the net that is causing the problem: ![image](https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenROAD/assets/2798822/8b060f66-f907-4707-8841-9772ffa5f7a5) ### maliberty Short term I would select all nets and see if you can spot the one crossing the macro. Then go to one end and see what pin it is coming from @eder-matheus @luis201420 can we add the set of nets in the gcell to the congestion marker? ### oharboe Some tips and some ideas for new features to improve this experience, so I think this is answered.
