I can't traceroute back to 41.220.0.4, from here the last hop that works
seems to be the remote end of a sat link:

traceroute to 41.220.0.4 from 147.28.0.62, 64 hops max, 40 byte packets

Are you perhaps filtering ICMP messages, breaking PMTU discovery?

If you can ping anything close (like the previous hop), try pinging
with large packets (8K+) and see if the responses get back to you.
