I have a problem on my dedicated box that is hosted in Germany. There is an IP on the route from the datacenter to the UK that is losing packets and causing spikes.

Is there a way to bypass this IP or reroute the starting IP to take another route missing out the problem IP?

Do you have the IP of the dedicated box?

What's it for?

The IP of my dedicated is 217.172.188.9

I'm running game servers from it and there is an IP on route which is losing packets/causing lag spikes.

No. The only way to resolve it is to contact the owner of the faulty hardware or the people directly on either side of that router. Anyone farther out than that probably won't want to fix it it, but could route away from the neighboring routers linking to the faulty router.

They have asked me to do MTR's of from and to. The first lot, they said they couldn't do any thing as there was no enough information, even though if you read the logs you would see one of the IP's was losing packets. Just sent another lot of logs in, hoping they see the fault this time and do some thing about it.
