Login to your internet/DSL router and ping an external IP
(4.2.2.2, yahoo.com, your ISP gateway, etc) continuously
and check for drops.  If you get any ping drops then your
ISP link has a problem, screenshot it and send it to your
ISP tech support.

Note that some machines on the internet block or rate limit
ICMP packets (eg. google.com), so even if you are losing
ping packets, your internet connection would still be working
just fine.

Are any of your services (browsing, mail, voip) getting
affected?


ICMP may also be dropped in case of network congestion.
So test during off-peak times to ensure you are not getting
any ping drops.
