Here we go...<snip>
Test 12: Packet loss en route to a UK server
Ideally, you should get a result of around 0 % (lower is better)
plig.net: 0 %
gnu.teleglobe.net: 36 %
An unacceptable level of packet loss has been detected which should be investigated.
Test 13: Packet loss en route to a European server
Ideally, you should get a result of around 0 % (lower is better)
uni-kl.de: 0 %
sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch: 2 %
A small amount of packet loss has been detected. This should be investigated.
Test 14: Packet loss en route to an east-coast USA server
Ideally, you should get a result of around 0 % (lower is better)
nyi.net: 0 %
dc.aleron.net: 0 %
The results of this test indicate no problems.
End of testing.
I'm a bit worried by these packet losses but in truth I don't know a lot about the real ins and outs of a connection. Can anyone shed some light please? Is all on here looking good or not? |
As you say the result for packet loss doesn't look good, everything else is fairly ok, it would seem.
For now I would suggest running the test at a few different times of day, to see if any pattern emerges. If you consistently get bad packet loss all the time, then it may be worth looking a bit deeper at stuff like MTU settings, but I'd try the diagnostics for a little longer, first, if I was you
