Trace an IP or proxy route
Map the network path from this server to an IP, hostname, or proxy server address. Use it to spot slow hops, timeouts, routing changes, and the approximate locations of networks between your server and the target.
Trace starts from this server. Results show the route from this hosting environment, not from your browser, home connection, VPN, or mobile network.
Running traceroute and mapping public hops.
RTT means round-trip time. It is the time in milliseconds for a traceroute probe to reach a hop and return. Lower RTT usually means faster response; high or rising RTT can point to distance, congestion, or a slow network segment.

Mapped hops use approximate IP geolocation.

Traceroute Map for IP and Proxy Diagnostics
Use this traceroute map tool to check the route from this server to a public IP address, website hostname, DNS endpoint, or proxy server. The results combine hop order, latency, timeout signals, approximate IP geolocation, country flags, and exportable route data in one diagnostic view.
Find where a route slows down
A traceroute map helps show each public network hop between this server and your target. Use it to spot high-latency hops, repeated timeouts, routing detours, and networks that may be affecting connection speed.
Check proxy server reachability
Enter a proxy server hostname or IP address to see the path to that proxy endpoint. This is useful when checking datacenter proxies, residential proxy gateways, SOCKS servers, VPN endpoints, or regional proxy infrastructure.
Understand approximate hop locations
Mapped hop locations are based on public IP geolocation. They are useful for route visualization and regional troubleshooting, but they should be treated as approximate network locations rather than exact physical positions.
Compare hosting and network paths
Run traces to different websites, DNS services, proxy gateways, or server IPs to compare the route length, slowest hops, and where traffic crosses major network providers.
Troubleshoot packet loss and timeouts
Timeouts do not always mean a broken route, because many routers limit traceroute replies. Repeated missing hops or a route that never reaches the target can still help identify firewall, routing, or provider issues.
Document support issues clearly
Copy the route summary or export CSV results when opening a support ticket. Hop IPs, latency, route order, and timeout points give hosting providers and network teams clearer evidence than a simple speed complaint.
Validate regional proxy infrastructure
Proxy buyers and network operators can trace proxy gateway endpoints to confirm reachability, routing region, upstream network diversity, and whether traffic is taking an unexpected path before it reaches the proxy server.
Export and compare route data
CSV export makes it easier to compare route changes over time, archive diagnostics, review hop latency patterns, or share a compact route snapshot with a technical team.
When to use this route checker
- A website, API, DNS service, proxy gateway, or server feels slow from your hosting environment.
- You need to confirm whether a proxy server endpoint is reachable before using it in tools or automation.
- You want a visual route map with countries, hop order, latency, and timeout points.
- You need exportable route evidence for support, monitoring, or comparison across providers.
Traceroute Map FAQ
What does this traceroute map show?
It shows public network hops from this server to the destination IP address, hostname, or proxy server, then maps hops that have geolocation coordinates.
Can I trace a proxy server?
Yes. Enter the proxy hostname or IP address. The tool maps the route to the proxy endpoint itself, which is useful for checking reachability and routing to that proxy server.
Are hop locations exact?
No. IP geolocation is approximate and usually represents a network registration or routing area, not a precise physical router location.
Why do some hops show timeouts?
Some routers block or deprioritize traceroute replies. A timeout can be normal, but repeated timeouts or failure to reach the destination can point to routing or firewall problems.
Why does this route differ from my computer?
The trace runs from the server hosting this page. Your home, office, mobile, or VPN network can take a different path to the same destination.
