Hello,
I recently got a MikroTik Routerboard ( https://routerboard.com/RB2011UiAS-2HnD-IN ) and am trying to establish public internet connectivity from my Cisco Lab, which is three routers and three switches, but regardless of what I do the I am routinely dropping 3-5 packets.
My setup is Cable Modem ------ > Routerboard ( my standard residence network is connected here) (192.168.8.1) LAB ----> Cisco 1800 (192.168.8.2 Fa 0/1) ----> 2 more Cisco 1800s ------- > Catalyst 3560 ---> 2 cisco 2960
1. I have set up a plethora of different DNS servers, from my WOWway ISP, to 8.8.8.8, to Open DNS, to almost anything I could think of to try, I can ping URLs, so I don't think it's an issue with DNS. I think so line encapsulation might be incorrect, but I hard coded the bandwidth on 10 megs on both sides, synched the MTUs. and cannot figure out why I cannot get a consistent 5/5 successful packets.
( I'll post outputs below)
The odd thing is that I sometimes I am losing no packets on the same IP/hostname/URL sometimes I am losing a lot, there's no consistency.
Here are some examples:
1. Translating "www.google.com"...domain server (64.233.217.3) [OK]Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 64.53.251.49, timeout is 2 seconds: !.!. Success rate is 40 percent (2/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 16/16/16 ms ||||||||||||||
2. Translating "twitter.com"...domain server (64.233.217.3) [OK]Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 199.16.156.198, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 32/36/44 ms
3. ping 8.8.8.8 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 8.8.8.8, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 24/26/28 ms
4. r1#ping www.espn.com
Translating "www.espn.com"...domain server (64.233.217.3) [OK]
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 199.181.133.5, timeout is 2 seconds:
.!.!.
Success rate is 40 percent (2/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 56/58/60 ms

I would love to hear your opinions, thanks.

Hmmmm, no ideas at all? Am I trying to fit a square peg in a round hole?
09-17-2016 02:27 PM
NM I figured it out, I had two static routes point to my ISP router, one with exit int and one with next hop IP, I killed the exit int one, works, like a charm now!. YAY!

Sean,
good to know that you figured it out. I was initially thinking that the packet loss was not even caused by something in YOUR network, but by intermediate devices on the public network, where ICMP traffic is usually given low priority.
