      Yeah...I wasn't looking at a router at the time and I hadn't looked at this one in a month. Oops.

      Although that did light a bulb for me. Loss Interval says "Time interval in milliseconds before packets are treated as lost. Default is 2000." Do "treated as" packets actually get marked in the percentage lost? With an average of 1300 perhaps a few are taking longer than 2000ms and are considered "lost" although they arrive in, say, 2100ms and thus the 0% loss shown? I think I'll try using 120s for the time interval to see if that "provides smoother results."

      Overall the goal was just to not have the connection drop/failover now and again, with 0% loss shown. High latency isn't great but moving the traffic from cable to DSL isn't generally going to improve that if it's due to traffic.

      Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
      When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
