Maybe the ISP is using a router that doesn't respond to ICMP, like the
Livingston IRX, or others??

    Hi all!

    Whenever we do a traceroute from our Sprint connection to a host in the
    HiNet network, we get timed out in the Sprint/HiNet link, as follows:

    Tracing route to w3.hinet.net [168.95.1.82]
    over a maximum of 30 hops:

    Trace complete.

    Line 8 is always like this and a customer of ours is complaining about
it.
    Is this a time out or congestion or something else?
