Overworked router?

10/30 - I'm connected to the local SEA-POP access point here in Seattle. My first few hops trace fine (router->modem->tower->clearwire-dns), but the fourth hop on just goes to shit.

It's dropping packets like crazy, I can't stay connected to IRC or IM, and uploading videos to YouTube is neigh impossible.

Anyone else experience these problems today?

[Edit: ignore this post. It turns out it was my Windows Vista machine acting up. Why am I not surprised?]

Could you run a trace route to youtube and post the results?

You guys can ignore this post. It turns out it was Windows Vista being stupid.

Originally all signs pointed to clearwire acting up - the trace always start to hiccup on the fourth hop - but upon further investigation, it appears I have run into a not uncommon problem with Windows Vista wireless networking.

You can't imagine how frustrating that was, learning that I needed to reboot in order to get my network working again >:(
