  2. Trace Route

The help says (hope it helps):

Here you can find out more information about specific IP addresses and you can also see a map of the route that a piece of data takes to get to or from your computer. Just enter the IP address and click on “Get details” or “Trace”.

Some more detail needed please.

What details in particular? “Trace” is the usual traceroute command, and all is combined with GeoIP (online lookup) / Ping / name of the ISP.
