[QUOTE="Citizen Bleys, post: 1072189, member: 162033"] Are you connecting through a router? If so, try going directly to your modem and see if you still get packet loss. No packet loss is acceptable, but sometimes applications or hardware on a home network can overload the modem, causing artificial packet loss. If your ISP can ping your modem with the ethernet cord unplugged, ask them to do it -- if there's no packet loss with the ethernet cord disconnected, but there is some when your ethernet cord is plugged in, it's an issue with your own equipment. VoIP routers are particularly notorious for this; A good VoIP router shouldn't cause a problem, but Vonage seems to ship an awful lot of duds. [/QUOTE]
