After moving house I have been struggling with my DSL and blamed many issues on my provider (Vodafone)

But I finally made progress and realised some of the issues I had were not issues...

As it stands right now, everything appears to be stable.. And I can do a 'dos' ping to 8.8.8.8 for hours on end with zero packet loss.

But I have been using PingPlotter for my tests and that tells a different story.. With PP I am getting regular bursts of packet loss.. Further more, when its running my "dos" ping starts to fail too.

It looks like I get packet loss across the network but not to my first and 2 hop.. So what is this telling me? I guess if there is a problem its not at my end..

Does this show a problem? Or is this a problem with PP? And if its correct, why does PP show this, but a DOS ping not?

I would really appreciate someones help with this as I am not sure if I have a problem or not.

Jon
