The first hope would normally be the router.  Instead of assuming check the 
IPv6 addresses and confirm.

The remaining hops in your test do not return ICMP packets.  This could well 
be because intermediate nodes do not respond to ICMP for security reasons.  
ICMP has been abused to perform DDoS attacks over the years and many hosts 
just drop ICMP requests.  Try running traceroute with --tcp or --udp instead, 
but you may need to run the command as root.

Have a look at this online service to see what a normal traceroute6 response 
looks like:

If you get nowhere check from your PC, try the router.  Modern routers usually 
provide network testing apps like traceroute.
