*** If one of these hops fails, you'll get three asterisks instead of three *** times - this indicates that router or host after the previous hop isn't *** responding. From this you can work out where the problem lies - are you *** still in your own space? Your ISPs? The target ISPs? The target's? Now you *** know who to phone up :-)
Incorrect. If the LAST entry is asterisks then maybe it is failing, but if there is an entry after the one with the asterisks then it is NOT failing. If it were, how would the next router be getting anything? The asterisk entry is just not responding to ICMP Ping requests: in all probability it's a firewall; outside possibility that it is just too busy to respond to low-priority pings, but probably a firewall. This is probably a DNS issue. The TLD nameserver serving Canada might have a bad/missig entry. Find out what the IP address is. Try to browse using http://192.168.10.10/ or whatever the IP address. That will absolutely narrow it down to DNS or connection issue.
