Packet Loss - 12/27/00 03:11 PM

I think that the Packet Loss utility is very useful, but the data shown is only for the most recent poll. I believe that posting the current data and the average data just like the Ping delay would be very helpful in troubleshooting problems in Internet transport.<br><br>

Actually, packet loss only shows the average data. Because the current sample is always "lost or not", it's not very useful to display this as a graph. If you're only seeing packet loss for the most recent poll, try changing the "Samples to include" number to something a bit higher and see if that changes the data to be a bit more like what you're looking for.<br><br>If I totally misunderstood your question/suggestion, please try again.
