EXACTLY 50% packet loss. It turned out their NT server was bridging tow networks and had two Ethernet cards. And two different IP addresses. Nothing wrong with that. However the ability under windows to make BOTH of them the default route, led to the TCP/IP stack using them in round robin to send TCP/IP packets. Microsoft were complete assholes. -- The lifetime of any political organisation is about three years before its been subverted by the people it tried to warn you about.
