Packet Loss

So annoying, and shouldn't happen. It started last night. Here's a ping log:

Ping has started…

Woo, even better minecraft clone! | I feel that programming is better than animation, because you can interact with games but not animations.

Re: Packet Loss

I get a 0% packet loss when I ping the same address, so it's probably your router or internet connection in general causing the problem. Have you tried pinging other addresses?

Yeah, I'm mostly inactive.  I check in once in a while though.  If you want to contact me, I have a contact form at my website, http://escratch.org

Re: Packet Loss

My ISP said that their main server is down, no wonder why I get packet loss.
