okay so here we go. pc is connected directly to the modem. when i ping the default gateway or Yahoo! i drop packets some times 50% sometimes 25% and sometimes it times out. the modem is good and here come the crazy part i checked the network with my laptop with the same cable its perfect no drops at all speed is great. i also took the pc having issues to a different network i know is good runs great no dropped packets, but when taken back the the trouble network the issues are still there. I am really not for sure what else this could be, any ideas? how could a comp drop packets only at one spot when another is fine with the same setup? the isp has been out three times with nothing found and i really am not for sure what else to test any ideas would be awesome i am up for even the weirdest idea at this point. smash with big hammer? shoot gremlins?
