How to perform a tracert:
1.) Click the start menu and choose or type (then hit enter) run
2.) In the box that pops up, type in cmd and hit enter.
3.) In the black box that pops up, type in tracert serverip (where serverip is your server IP or DNS, such as ??.gomanilahost.net) and then hit enter.
4.) You will start to get a lot of data appearing in the black area. It should look similar to this:
