How to prioritize traffic on a single interface over others?
-
There are a lot of variables, it's not necessarily a sign that there's an issue.
A better thing to look for is a significant change the ping time that has no good explanation.Steve

OK, so now I am using an OpenDNS address for the gateway monitor IP and for PingPlotter (from my computer). The gateway monitor continues to show intermittent packet loss (like my pictures earlier in the thread), but there is not corresponding packet loss being shown in PingPlotter at the same time, even though they are going to the same IP address. Does that make any sense? Not sure which graph to believe.

With the shaping still in place or have you removed that?
If might be in a different queue if it's still there.

Shaping not active - I removed it yesterday.

I just checked the graphs again, and now seeing packet loss on both graphs that matches exactly as expected.
Next stop - arguing with my ISP I guess. -
Yes, unless you are saturating the connection you should not be seeing packet loss.
