Mountain View, CA | Reliability issues? I have been using Etheric for over a year now and the service used to work just fine. Unfortunately, lately, I have noticed problems with connectivity about once a month. This is mostly an issue with Voice over IP. It does not like 20%-30% packet loss - right now, I am trying to post this with about 30% packet loss. There was another big outage at the beginning of December and a few others in October, etc.
Has anyone else noticed similar problems?
I don't think that this is solely related to the wireless link itself. There also seem to be frequent routing problems between Etheric and peers.
I admit that my expectations are very high and maybe that's unreasonable. It would be really great if Etheric was to provide reasonable SLAs to customers. At least then I would know what to expect 
Anyway, if you have experiences to share, please reply.
