Armadillo Aerospace found when they arrived for the xprize that they were getting something like 90% packet loss from their laptop to the transmitter (or whatever. There was a cabled connection between the controlling computer and the rocket itself). They changed the ethernet cable and it went back to normal. Turns out the first cable got pinched in the van on the way down. --Lucifer 17:23, 4 November 2006 (CST)

I don't have much control here, so all I can do is report. My observations so far, in case anyone is interested:

Larger packets are lost more often.
Corrupted underway?
I can reach the local router with no loss.
LAN is fine.
Packets get lost before the next hop.
Now we know roughly where it is caused.
I don't always get loss. Either it works fine, or I get crazy loss, and changes aren't gradual. I can't relate it to anything.
No idea. Maybe a variable noise source near a cable?
