Wrt3200acm intermittently dropping packets

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

I recently moved apartments, and with it got a new ISP. Ever since I've been dropping ~5% of packets randomly. This doesn't seem like a wireless issue since when I ssh onto the router and ping google, I'm still dropping packets.

--- google.com ping statistics ---
193 packets transmitted, 189 packets received, 2% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 32.736/35.286/47.900 ms

When I plug my laptop directly into the modem, I don't have an issue.

Any tips on where to look for more information on why I'm dropping packets?

Check the jumper that your using? Try a different one. Just a hunch. Welcome to the forum!

Hi @knacht, thanks, unfortunately I have tried a few now, and the fact that when I plug my laptop directly into the modem with the same one that I'm connecting the router with doesn't result in data loss leads me to believe it's not that.
