And how exactly would you interpret the number returned by net_loss
(int), in a column called "LOSS", in reference to reachability of a

The hop not sending out the ICMP message for those packets, either
because its CPU is overloaded or because of a configuration option to
rate-limit them.

Thank you. The former seems close to what may have happened, with a
possible impact beyond ICMP, as once having moved my client over to
their Broadwing connection, their processing from Yahoo's site seems
to have come back to where it was a few days ago.
Thanks again,
