It's happening at the second hop.

We do have instances where a router failing causes intermittent connection problems, so you may want to try bypassing the router and just connecting directly with one PC for a while as a test. Not saying it IS your router causing the problem, but seeing if the problem remains with the router removed would prove if the problem is elsewhere.

If you need further help though, feel free to shoot me a PM with your account info.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Sporadic-packet-loss-27943110 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 12:46:23 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Sporadic-packet-loss-27941081
There are no other data transfers while the problem was happening.

I doubt the problem is my router or else I'd be getting the problem all the time. And the problem wouldn't suddenly vanish all on it's own. That doesn't sound like a router issue to me.

It sounds much like this issue: »SUDDENLY High latency an packet loss to gateway]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Sporadic-packet-loss-27941081 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 18:58:20 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Sporadic-packet-loss-27940835 ,

dslx_nick is out of the office today but him or Steve should be back tomorrow and can follow up with you directly. Alternatively you can open a ticket with our support team by calling 866-491-7221 and someone in our support team would be able to assist.

It looks like there is a little packetloss at the first hop. Are you directly connected to the modem or using a router? Is that wired or wireless? Are there any other data transfers or anyone else using the connection while it is occurring?

Thanks

I detected the problem around 9:00pm Pacific Time. And the problem went away close to 10:00 pm.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Sporadic-packet-loss-27938336 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 01:32:58 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Sporadic-packet-loss-27938278
I ran a utility called PingPlotter that traces packet loss and latency over times. I've attached a screenshot of this utiity when I was having the problem.

Most of the time the DSL line is OK but every now and then I simply can't play online games at all due to these packet loss/latency spikes.

What is causing these spikes and why does it suddenly just vanish - and then come back ?

Come somebody at DSL Extreme help me with this?
