METHOD AND TROUBLESHOOTING

What this online packet loss test actually measures

The test sends 30 HTTP requests from your browser to the Internet Analysis endpoint. The displayed loss percentage is the fraction that fails or times out. It is an application-level reliability check, not a raw UDP or ICMP packet capture. TCP can recover lost network packets before the browser notices them.

How to interpret 0% or a failed sample

Zero failed requests means all 30 completed in this short run. It does not prove that your network has zero packet loss all day. One failed request out of 30 is about 3.3%; a timeout, server error or interrupted browser connection can cause it. Repeat before drawing conclusions.

Find whether the problem is Wi-Fi, the device or the ISP

  1. Run the test with heavy downloads and uploads paused.
  2. Repeat on the same device over Ethernet. If only Wi-Fi fails, investigate signal and interference.
  3. Compare a second device and repeat at the time the problem normally happens.
  4. Check the affected game or calling app too: its endpoint and protocol differ from this browser test.
  5. Save the actual sample count, duration and time of each run before contacting your provider.
