This is such a gem. I’ve had this issue at my location for quite sometime, the tech and company blame everything else. Now I can see it’s not coming from anywhere in my private network it’s theirs!!! Thanks man! You’re the 🐐

Great video. In your example having loss on one node typically means the service provider owning that node is choosing not to respond to the ping or ICMP requests. If the loss is not persistent for the rest of the trace till the end then it's likely you are not having packet loss causing end host issues. For example 10 percent on hop 5 would need to be persistent for every hop till the end.

Great Video, easy to pick up hopefully my isp will take the faulty hop server out of the routing, whenever that particular server is involved I get packet loss, when I ping that one directly it gives me four times a "Request timed out", any other server in that "hop chain" response with a ping around 10ms without any loss. Thx for your help mate.

Update: My ISP called me 1hour ago, and asked about the screenshot of the pathping route ... quite fast consindering I just contacted them about that yesterday, fingers crossed they can fix that asap.

@VitalGlory7 жыл бұрын
so i found the issue. the router was updating and looking for other networks on its own without me asking it to. All i had to do was type in the CMD "netsh wlan show settings", one of the last things might say Wireless Network Connection or Wi-FI. Mine said Wi-FI so after no interface+= i put Wi-Fi. then you type this in - "netsh wlan set autoconfig enabled=no interface="Wi-Fi". basically this disabled auto configuration, and it should respond that it has been disabled.
