Packet loss along route to server.

I'm trying to access an in-game store on my computer and the webpage consistently times out before loading.

 

Upon running a tracert, I have isolated a server on-route to the store, and it has 25% packet loss, which is absurd. Is there any way to either have this server checked, or have the connection rerouted to go through servers that are actually functioning properly?

 

I can provide further evidence of Comcast-owned servers giving me packet loss along the route to the server that houses the store if necessary.

Please post the trace. If the packet loss doesn't extend to the end of the route, it's probably not significant. See https://www.dslreports.com/faq/14068

Notice that packet loss at the last hop is zero:

 


| Host                -  % | Sent | Recv | Best | Avrg | Wrst | Last |
| 104.16.10.33  -  0  |  727 |   727  |    9   |    12   |   23  |   12   |

As stated previously, if packet loss doesn't extend to the end of the route, it's probably not significant.

If it's "not significant", why am I timing out?

I have no way of knowing. Perhaps the site is blocking your public Comcast IP. You can look up your IP at https://www.google.com/search?q=what+is+my+IP. You'll probably need to ask the site's admins for help with this.
