20% - 60% PL through Level3?

**Wyzcrak** · 10-30-2006, 10:17 PM

I'm just wondering if anyone else is getting the packet loss I am through the Level3.net network? I've been having it every day (all day) for the last week.

Note: ignore the destination. There's no reason to think this has anything to do with our servers.

Here's the two most recent sample sets. Several others follow (as links, not images).

Is there something *I* am doing wrong? This seems like an awfully long time to suffer such packet loss, but it seems too confined (in location), and variable (in intensity, not reliability), for it to be caused by something on my end?

I'm not getting lag through L3, but after about 7pm Eastern time my ping jumps to between 250-500 on theplanet. I get the same results from all servers that use that network, but 99.9% of the rest of gameservers from multiple games I play are fine (meaning i still ping anywhere from 15-50). I previously posted PP results for this in the NS forum wyz. Still getting the same thing.
