I am also on Paramushir and I could be blunt by saying that there's no issues here with Paramushir as well.

No, what I actually meant is that the way networking works is that your packets transverse through nodes/segments on various networks. These are beyond your control but the only way to know what is up with them is to use network troubleshooting tools such as traceroute. Except in this case traceroute will not work against KC server because technically KC servers blocks a special type packet known as ICMP.

Nodes could mean anything in networking, it could be a server, a switch, a router, a computer or even something like a network printer could also be a node.

Again, I think it is best for you to consult with a network technician as there are lots of unexplained possible causes for your connection to be unstable when connecting to KC server. It isn't KC server's fault but one of the nodes along the way is down or something. I have however written a blog entry on what networking is like in a small nutshell if you're that inclined to read up on it. It is on this page towards the bottom (near the comments area but not in comments).

If it helps, 's IP is 125.6.189.215 but that does not necessarily mean that the server is physically located in Paramushir in case if you're wondering.
