I have 61% packet loss.
It was fine up until today, a windows 10 update later and all of a sudden it's gone to shit. Thanks Microsoft.
I checked on my laptop and there's no problem there so it's not the ISP/router. Swapped the dongle and that made no difference. This is very fucking irritating, it means I can't play certain online games. Very fucking annoyed. Thanks for the update Microsoft, thanks a fucking lot.
Any ideas?

It's to do with getting older and fatter, mine certainly looks smaller than it did 20 years ago.

It's down to 1% now, hopefully it'll stay there.

Are you running wifi FH?
seems the packet loss issue in Win 10 only applies to wifi connections, when hard wired there is 0% packet loss normally.

The router is about 3 meters away, and it's definitely my connection.

I've been struggling with this issue for a few weeks since the last win 10 upgrade. Some days no wifi at all others it's fine. I'm told that re - installing the wifi drivers from the vendor (not generic / ms version) would fix it. May need to select the option to run in compatibility mode but haven't tried that yet. If I revert to the point before the update it all works fine.

When I was searching for my problem it seemed that packet loss is a common occurrence with Windows 10.
The updates are really beginning to get on my tits in general. My laptop was barely usable for a couple of hours today. It was fine until restarting after yet another update. Not only do the updates seem to fuck things up, they also seem to be regular.

Yup, I agree. I have a modicum of tech knowledge but im stumped. There isnt even an easy wipe and restart option anymore. How many hours and cash people spend on fixing an issue that MS appear to have created beggars belief
