Title: Discoing more than Travolta
Post by: FGBullet on January 14, 2012, 02:57:24 PM
About 2 weeks ago I started discoing approximately every 45 - 60 minutes.

I ran pingplotter and noticed 40% and 100% packet loss on two of the hops. I've attached the text from the pingplotter trace. Hopefully this will address why I'm discoing.

how old is your router?
Title: Re: Discoing more than Travolta
Post by: FGBullet on January 14, 2012, 03:31:51 PM
About 8 months old. I took the router out of the equation and was still discoing.

Thanks...

Your pinging the wrong server. The LW server is 206.16.60.41 Run the ping to that and see what you get.

Hmmmmm, the Technical FAQ page states to trace to www.hitechcreations.com???  :headscratch:

The disconnects started approximately 2 weeks ago and I disco every 45-60 minutes. I've tried cable directly into computer, (eliminating the router) and new ethernet cables.

Here's the results after pinging to 206.16.60.41

You need to contact your ISP about this one.  Your problems are all over the first couple of hops, which appear to be multiple NAT routers having issues.  Send that data to them as well.

Be forewarned, the first level support contacts will only test your local Internet connection, and they will probably tell you everything is fine.  You need to reach an actual network support person and not even bother dealing with the first guys that answer the phone.
