sh-4.1#

My question is, where does the problem lie? The first hop times out; Would that be my phone itself? Line 21, which is where the timeouts start at the end, should be my home router, judging by what I see on the other traceroute. Is my router blocking the traffic from my phone specifically? Any idea why? I am at a loss here. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to this as far as I can tell and at this point I don't know who to complain to, AT&T, RoadRunner, or me...

Edit: So, I got my IP address for my phone from whatismyip.com and I can't ping that from the phone either. Problem??? or not...

Edit 2: Connected via a local wifi hotspot and traceroute connects on through.
