And to prove it still happens via LAN (instead of WiFi):



It might be the web application though.. because I did this command line and I look fine....

Good info, NG2, thanks. Your results mirror mine on the web test and I did a quick command line test and got

Ping statistics for 216.240.172.161:
Packets: Sent = 250, Received = 250, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 70ms, Maximum = 175ms, Average = 76ms

I'm in Cary, and I got upgraded this morning. Here are my results.

that's definitely an issue with that webapp more than likely.

I'm online chatting with TWC, and both Roadrunner Extreme and wideband services are apparently available in my area (Chapel Hill), so I'm attempting to sign up for Extreme. (I'm jonesing for the faster upload speed, not so much the download speed.)

I just got upgraded to 30/5 service. The modem comes in router/wifi mode. If you are tech savvy like me make sure you get the tech that comes out to call in to get it set to bridge mode.

Downgraded to 30/5 last night. Here's my results from the same servers you used:

I'm sad U-Verse still isn't available at my apt. I did get to renegotiate my rate yesterday with TWC. $124 including tax for HD DVR, second room HD, and 10/whatever internet.

I have to believe it is the settings on the new wideband modems that is causing this. I am on the Verizon MiFi and seeing zero packet loss.... (I use it exclusively while traveling).

I am going to get home and play around with the router. If you make any headway let me know RDUBiker..
