May have to go that route. Its a rare occasion I need to do this, but when it gets to the point I can turn on icmp in their router for them. The current customer in particulare is seeing packetloss upstream to certain hops but not beyond, we dont see it in our tracroutes. Im beginning to wonder if hes not running so much ICMP that his IP isnt hitting a threshold and getting filtered out on the upstream device.
