I'd consider 'none' to be normal. But keep in mind that you are always testing the whole round trip even though it is only reported as the path to something. If something nearby is dropping packets it is probably also responsible for the ones reported on the path to more distant things. Clean up the problem with your router before looking anywhere else.
Up until here, everything is clear. I also agree that the router shouldn't be droping packets.
If you are dropping packets on your ethernet connection to your own router, you almost certainly have a duplex mismatch on the switch connection to the router or pc.
Huh? Do you mean a twisted cable (I don't know how you call them in English, but it's the cable that you use to connect two computers together instead of computer-router) instead of a regular cable? I'm pretty sure that it's a regular cable, but I'll check that.
If it is on the T1 side, it is probably overloaded.
For the time being, I've only one machine on the router. So I'm modem-router-linbox. Which side is T1?
Look for compromised machines spreading viruses/spam or file sharing.
The only machine on this network at the moment is this linbox. It's a week-old install at that.
Do you have access to the router to see the interface statistics for traffic and errors?
Yes, I've access to the router, and I just enabled the log. It was apparently disabled until now. This is a home network and I've access to all the equiptment. Thank you, Les.
