Yet another "Me too!" response. We often use pings to www.cisco.com as a Internet connectivity test from globally dispersed sites. These are typical ploss for ICMP pings. The most likely answer, as others have pointed out, is throttling at the destination. The fact that so many people use www.cisco.com for this purpose is probably why they need to throttle traffic.

Last night I had a maintenance so I use www.cisco.com for testing the network connectivity. But it seems that I'm seeing about 20% packet loss from www.cisco.com. I did same test from various points including my home cable modem connection, which is not my company's network, but I'm getting same result.
Are you guys seeing same thing or different result? Is there any issue with cisco.com network?
