Subject: high packet loss within Sprint infrastructure? I hope this is an appropriate question for this list...
We have been experiencing severe packet loss, apparently within the Sprint infrastructure, for several weeks. Recently we've seen as high as 20% loss. Our users are screaming. They can't keep sessions open to resource providers, etc., to whom they are paying large annual fees. Not at all good.
I've heard recently that sprint will be adding more capacity to their Mae-West connection, but at this point it is just a rumor....
We have been receiving conflicting stories fron Sprint about where the problem(s) is(are), who is responsible, what is being done (if anything), etc.
The loss appears to us to be worst at MAE-WEST but it seems to be happening more broadly as well.
Can anyone else out there help shed light on this? Is anyone else aware of similar behavior?
Thanks, David Wasley University of California

An additional DS3 was recently turned up between MAE-West and Stockton and other improvements are in the pipeline. Jim On Wed, 13 Nov 1996, Stephen Meuse wrote:
