Seems okay here from Virgin broadband, no packet loss. Although I do get intermittent connectivity to netriplex, almost every other day my putty session gets disconnected from both at home and work. Edit: Ok spoke too soon, I'm seeing 20% packet loss now to your IP. Though my own VPS at 2host is fine.
