Although I did not provide screenshots to the 40 other widely varied destinations that smokeping system is set up to poll, all of them show similar 2-3% loss results as to the voip.ms server in Seattle. Additionally TCP is also dropping packets on the floor. And of course anything UDP is affected to the point that it's noticeable in voice/video. This is not a case of the cable ISP introducing some ICMP rate limiting packet eater but a general degradation for everything.

Have you thought about doing a TCP test? Maybe an HTTP check to a website? That would be better than ICMP, I think, since it would be more user like.

Looks like someone broke something on your cable link or perhaps an ICMP rate limiting was introduced.

I'll take the DOCSIS3 system....

First two screenshots are the docsis3, to its gateway and to a very reliable hosted asterisk system in Seattle. Second two screenshots are starlink, also to its gateway and to thesamedestination. https://imgur.com/a/OQ5wyDr
