My Internet Drives Me Crazy

comcast internet

In the past I haven’t had a lot of trouble with Comcast Broadband, but for the past couple days it has been dropping packets all over the place. ARRRRRGH.

--- comcast.net ping statistics ---
624 packets transmitted, 95 packets received, 84% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 68.991/400.410/3449.330/765.964 ms

UPDATE: I upgraded my firmware on my wireless router and things started working. One of the most bizzare network issues I’ve seen, since I hadn’t touched anything on that router for about 2 years, and the problem was intermittent. I got rid of the old Sveasoft WRT54 firmware and upgraded it to DD-WRT.
