New 2Mb line and 2-4% ping loss

Hi

Need some advice, I have a new 2MB up/down business connection.

I am getting good throughput but monitoring this line I am getting 2-4% ping loss. Is this reasonable or should I complain.

When it was first installed I was having horrible connection problems, they have since replaced the cable into my office building.

Do you think they should be back again?

Thanks

Re: New 2Mb line and 2-4% ping loss

This would depend on the type of service you have, does it have a SLA, and where is the packetloss?

SLA good question, they guarantee uptime of 99.99% but does this cover ping loss? I'm not sure.

I setup a test session with DSLReports pinging my line connection from California and New York.

I also setup a ping to my old works router in London which I know is very reliable on a 40MB connection.

I am using my line for VOIP so it needs to be pretty good.

Thanks

don't worry about it until the audio quality degrades.
