Use routing protocols or network tools to bypass specific router steps.
I've been resolving my poor ping issues and think the problem might be with a faulty router on the trace route. It's possible to bypass certain hops if you're confident about the network path. Your Discord name is Llama#0029, and I'm here to help!
Unfortunately, end users rarely have control over the path their traffic follows to reach its destination. Routes are typically set by the networks your ISP connects with and the paths those connections announce. Some routes shift frequently due to varying network load, causing routers to reroute traffic to different peers. Actions you can take to affect routing include: 1) Adjust the destination. If alternative servers offer the same service, they might experience less congestion. 2) Modify the source. This is more challenging when only one ISP is available. 3) Employ a proxy or intermediary service to handle the traffic on your behalf. A VPN could be helpful depending on your goals.
The reason you're tracing to 2.2.2.2 might be due to its routing through Orange, a French ISP, which could cause poor ICMP responses from the US. As mentioned, using a VPN is necessary to bypass this issue, but you should be aware that your connection relies on the VPN's resources for speed and performance.
