Even though I have zero packet loss on all the tests I've done my Thinkbroadband quality monitor looks a little iffy though showing a little packet loss but my connection doesn't appear to represent what the graph shows so I'm not worrying about that. On my VM connection if the graph showed packet loss I would experience it my end.

I see my package is £5 cheaper per month so that's a little annoying.
So my FRITZ!Box 7530 AX router received an update and since then there is zero packet loss showing on the graph which is nice, although I never actually experienced any in my testing.

I got one as well. Don't know if you're registered with MyFritz!.net but they send monthly bulletins about useage/system etc and also tell you when an update is on it's way.

Don't think I am registered.

Do you have a thinkbroadband graph setup so you can see the difference the update made to the graph?

I do but haven't looked yet, don't look so often now as I don't have the "busy" VM connection to ponder over.
Just had a look, doesn't look a lot different really. Pretty clean chart on the whole before and after.
