Hi,

I have been noticing this for many days.

When I ping google.com from my OpenBSD firewall I always get packet
loss where as other sites don't give any packet loss.

Is there anybody experiencing the same problem?

Please  see the details below

My internet connections seem to be fine except for this packet loss
while pinging "google.com"

Any body has any comments I would be greatly interested :-)

Thankyou so much

Kind Regards
