Recently, I've been having an issue with all my devices, and my R6080 router. A few days ago, I tried to enable a Port Foward. When I found out the packets were still being dropped, I tried to enable a DMZ on the device. No effect. I've came to the conclusion that either my ISP is dropping the packets, or the settings aren't taking effect. Any feedback would be useful.

what device is having issues? All of them?One of them?How are you testing packet drop?is it happening over wifi? Over wired? What modem/gateway is it connected to? Does it have the same packet loss if directly connected ot the gateway?

Hi,Currently, as far as I know, it's on all my devices. I'm using the generic Windows packet tool with some generic port scanners. It's connected to an Arris modem, and it's over wireless and wired. I can't connect directly to my modem.

Which arris modem? And why can't you directly connect to the modem?

The modem is much older, and I can't get a model number, since I'm currently not at my house.

understood its old. when you can get a model number, post it on here. Also, why can't you directly connect to the modem?
