Packet Loss @ ip4-1.eyrkonaeac04.dialup
Hello. I seem to be getting fairly high packet loss at ip4-1.eyrkonaeac04.dialup mtr -r -c 100 8.8.8.8 ...

2 months agoOne thing to realize with MTR and traceroute tests is that the various nodes along the way may fully respond, partially respond, or not respond at all. That is normal. If you were losing packets (instead of the device just not replying to 100% of the requests), the downstream devices would all have similar packet loss showing. The full name of the node you suspect may be an issue is ip4-1.eyrkonaeac04.dialup.ca.telus.com. That seems to be an Ontario specific device being used for Telus Fibre.
Outside of running an MTR, what problems are you experiencing with your connection?

Yes. The reason i started looking at mtr is because of disconnection during video calls, internet phone calls, and online gaming. They are brief but frequent.
