Please run my second tool- I want to see if that makes a difference :P

Also - Could be firewall? Never heard of one at IPC though?

Hi Zertop tried both tools of yours. Normal "Tracert" and your tool does this to.

What config are you running?
When I setup my old network I had it like

Modem-->Router-->Switch-->PC

When it was like this with DHCP off on the router MTR would show exactly what you have. It didn't impact my speeds/latency but that's just what it was. I later moved to DHCP off on modem and let the router take care of everything with the modem being a transparent bridge.

It was not like that before. Nothing has changed in the router.
ADSL modem stock Telkom D-Link 2750U

With Axxess currently. Will test my other capped account this weekend.
 
Is it affecting your speeds/latency?

Yes
Might have a bit of a problem, try connecting to the modem directly. The 2nd hop is to the router, which wont reply to your pings.

No
No problem.

No, but I still need it fixed
Go to Yes
