Is anyone here aware of the source of seemingly random packet loss to and from home.net?
We have a T1 from @home and I've been getting about 75% packet loss on it for the last couple weeks. We've got a ticket in, but nobody seems to know what the heck is going on. Best I can tell is all my traffic gets to MAE-WEST with only 1% - 2% loss, and then starts timing out. Of course, anything within the @home network is just as quick as usual.

There's been about 12-15% packet loss between the NASA/Ames side and MFS's giga1 for a while now. That may be related. ********************************************************* J.D.

I've had a ticket open on this issue for months now, the original issue was that DEC's load balancing code did not work correctly and therefore one of the 4 OC3's was being over loaded. The new solution MFS has given me is that they are installing yet MORE trunks between MFS and AMES which while I'm not sure how that fixes the issue, MFS is telling me it will ;) -Steve On Wed, 3 Dec 1997, J.D.

To clear up what was apparently a serious misunderstanding, I meant to state that my packet loss seems to be a problem at MAE-WEST and not a problem with the @home network. I've had a great experience with @home as far as quality of connectivity and tech support, and would suggest them to anyone else (and frequently do). Apologies to anyone who interpreted my post as a flame on @home. Nick Bastin System Administrator - World Trade Internet Communications
