It's been like this for about 3 weeks now. It used to work fine.
Normally, traceroute tries to reach every router between you and the
target host. Sometimes, routers are configured to ignore traceroute
requests, so a failure (indicated by * * *) should not considered as an
issue. However, when every router is unreachable, there may be a problem
near the last working router.
I guess 192.168.0.1 is your home router. Maybe there is a problem on its
routing table, preventing you to reach some networks. Usually, the only
routing parameter is the default gateway, obtained via DHCP. The obvious
idea is to reboot your home router, but I think you already have done it
in the last 3 weeks.
Try to traceroute some other host in order to see if it works better.
Good luck.
