Doesn't work at all with Enhanced Tracking Protection enabled in Firefox, and times out when it is disabled.

I guess it's supposed to do something like this: https://dnschecker.org/online-traceroute.php

Do you have a VPN on as well? It works for me on FF mobile with Enhanced protection

No I think I just tested it while his server was intermittently failing and it happened to correspond to switching this setting off and on.

Shouldn't have anything to do with Enhanced Tracking Protection, but my server is buckling under the traffic pressure! I'm working on it, maybe check back in 40m or so (SORRY!)
