I guess it's something specific to Minecraft then? Or maybe it takes more traffic than a tracert generates before things go weird.
You don't have anything like port triggering or traffic shaping enabled on your router, do you? I had one a while back that would crash with port triggering enabled every time I joined a torrent. I could see one getting overhwelmed by the traffic from an online game and introducing latency trying to process every packet.
Either that, or maybe your ISP is doing some kind of traffic shaping. Maybe they're misidentifying the traffic from Minecraft and trying to throttle it like a torrent? I'd be curious to see if any other online games have the same issue.
