(with wireless, for example, there tend to be more errors)<BR />Is there a pattern to what is being dropped? (if it is 31 out of 300 DHCP responses that have been dropped then YES there is a problem)<BR />Do you want more than 99.9998087% of your traffic to get through?<BR /><BR />In general, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
