Hi Sephiroth. Can you explain what you mean? I'm curious because that packet loss was 40% yesterday when things were bad and less than 2% this morning when things were working properly. Surely if my firewall was blocking the relevant ICMP packets I'd see 100% loss all the time? I'll keep an eye on it but it does appear directly related to the issue.
Surely the "me" side is my cable modem which has a different 10.*.*.* IP address. Isn't the CMTS the start of the VM side?
As I understand it the CMTS won't just be me but will be shared with many others. With students returning for their new term could this be congestion?
Many thanks,
Charlie
