Why my 2nd ip from traceroute is not answering the ping anymore?
- by Pedro77
My Internet is really laggy today, I did a tracerout and I realize that I'm having no answer from an ip at the beginning of the traceroute. see:
Tracing route to 12.129.202.154 over a maximum of 30 hops

Well, I think it is odd that the 2nd ip is not returning the ping. I looked some old tracerout logs to see what was the 2nd ip. The ip was: 10.19.0.1
So, what this 2nd ip stand for?
How can I find why it is not answering the ping?
I don't understand it, if does not answer the ping, how can the packets continue (yeah newbie question)?
edit: well, because the hope 3 have a ping of 8 ms the hop 2 request time out should really not be a problem. But it is still odd that the 2nd hop stopped to answer ping request. So my doubts are:
1. Were the ip 10.19.0.1 is from?
2. Why it stopped to answer ping requests?
3. How can hop 7 be smaller than 6 and 8 smaller than 7 and 6!?? Shouldn't the pings be higher for each hop? Like: hop 3 time should be the sum of the hops before it plus its own time (hop 3 = 1+2+3) ??
