Packet loss is at its high point in hop 13 with low latency, and hop 1 packet loss has disappeared!

So, when my packet loss is high in hop 2 , hop 13 subtracts that loss from losses already there. When packet loss is low in hop 2, packet loss is added to losses already there in hop 13. If you look along the graph you can see this.

I would have never seen this anomaly if it hadn't of happened today in front off my eyes and comparing them to other tracerts I did. This would explain the lower differences in hop 13 behavior today. Packet loss was always 0%-3% Max in hop 2, or if it did get higher it wasn't there long enough for me to see the relationship in either hop. There was no effect from this in hops 3-11.

It's as though the packet loss from hop 2 and hop 13 is somehow switching places.

What's going on?
