Your snr, up and down power all look great. For better accuracy ping more than 4 times and use a larger packet size. Here is a ping to the first router in your tracert that shows packet loss. Note the use of -n and -l in the ping command.
H:\>ping -t 68.60.32.250 -n 50 -l 1000
Pinging 68.60.32.250 with 1000 bytes of data:

Ping statistics for 68.60.32.250: Packets: Sent = 50, Received = 48, Lost = 2 (4% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 31ms, Maximum = 32ms, Average = 30ms
It is also beneficial to run a reverse tracert. A search on google should yield a handful of these. Since I do not know your IP, here is a trace to the above router:
H:\>tracert 68.60.32.250

From these tests, it is not very conclusive where you are dropping packets. |
