do a traceroute to the server you are have trouble with. I think it is tracert on windows.Is there any program that i can use to check and control Packet Loss?
You can check for packet loss by ';pinging'; any website; but there's no way to ';Control it';. You have to fix it. If you have cable Internet, make sure all your cable connections are tight (wrench-tight). It could also be a problem with your router (if any), or your modem itself. Start by scheduling a service appointment with your provider if possible.


If you have a router, bypass it and connect your modem directly to your computer, then do a ping test.





You can ping indefinitely by typing at the command prompt:


ping -t yahoo.com





Stop the ping by pressing CTRL+C on your keyboard.
