I figured I had beaten up on them enough on the message so I didn't want to
mention that about 5% of the time that we click on a link in the browser,
it comes back with an error message (i.e. lost packet) and we have to
reload to get the page again. About every 5 or 6 pings I get a "request
timed out" error, but since Windows' brain-dead ping program counts that as
a 0ms time, it makes the Average number look better than it is so I
included one with all hits. This lost packet rate is usually much worse in
the late afternoons.
