Just let me ask you, as a customer who fairly frequently experiences 10% packet loss between major Internet locations across major service providers (no mom and pop shops in the middle or at the end points), how would you suggest I deal with that?

Sorry Michael, wrong answer. 1% packet loss is intolerable. 10% packet loss is all but useless for serious work.
