crosska1 it appears the Asus home router on hop 1 is dropping packets.
I would disconnect the 4 port switch and run an ethernet cable directly from the Asus router to the PC.
Then I'd ping the Asus router's IP address 192.168.2.1 in Ping Plotter.
If you still see packet loss then you know for sure the Asus router is dropping packets.
The next step would be figuring out why the Asus router is dropping packets.
It's usually causing by network traffic to the internet. Such as people watching Netflix, uploading stuff like photos from smartphones to cloud storage, neighbors stealing wifi access, etc.
Found the issue, ethernet cable was broken :D, currently there are no packet drops.
I'm tracing an AWS BF6 server, and constantly pinging the ASUS router with my script.
Thank you for your help!
