I monitor packet loss on both sides all day every day. It’s still a thing, but different than I’d imagined:

- Episodic most often. Something transient causes high loss for a short time. This happens locally and “in the cloud”. - Persistent due to a back connection or very high network load. I only really ever see this locally.

But I can go days at a time and not lose even one of millions of probes and responses.

When connections are good, they’re excellent these days. When they’re bad, well that doesn’t seem to have changed.
