I see, looking back at what you originally said, that the overall
transfer speed is ok but you are loosing packets in the transfer. I need
to read things more carefully.

I assume the conclusion you were leaning towards was a problem in the
route between you and google. Which seems right to me.

However, I need to learn something. tracroute when I run it does not
report lost packets, even if I use the -I option. What am I missing?
