Great! Thanks

You don't risk losing your test results. Yes, if your IP changes during that time you could lose track of them... but now that you're a member just make sure you're signed in. As long as you're signed in TMN will keep track of every result for you. If you have issues during the auto test that cause it to not finish you can always come back and get the results up to the point it happened. Instead of TMN emailing you each time, it's logging the information to your personal database. Just make sure you're logged in case your IP changes so that your results are all saved by username. In the near future the test will recover itself when that happens and resume testing when the connection's back online. You're welcome. I'm happy it's helping people.

I get the impression that the IP address is the victim of a DDoS attack, where Verizon has decided to null route all incoming traffic sent to it on most or all its routers to minimise traffic on its network from the attack. If this is the case, the next hop after your home router would be one of their routers (assuming your ISP is Verizon), hence no reply after your router. For the Level3 site traceroute, the third hop shown in your screenshot is at Verizon, so the next hop inside their network would also be one of their routers probably configured to null route that IP address. A few more tests worth trying would be a TCP traceroute and a UDP traceroute. If both give a similar result, then it's most likely that IP address is null routed rather than just ICMP filtering to block a trace route to it.
