Getting packet loss on every hop except the first one when pinging to 8.8.8.8 (Google's DNS)

Thanks for the response Allan!

So these actually look much worse because there is packet loss at the first hop on all three. Not really sure what is going on.

I've noticed some home routers will deny multiple ICMP pings running at the same time. I believe this is a resource protection feature. The same thing happens on my unifi USG. As long as when you're running one traceroute it doesn't have loss it's probably fine. Really the most important hop is the last one. Some of the middle hops with drop ICMP because of prioritization. You could even try it without the router connected directly to modem.

yep I'm gonna try that when I have the chance. It's just weird because all of this has happened so quickly. Everything was perfect a week ago.

Post your modem signal levels and event log. Go to 192.168.100.1 in a browser. If it asks for a password try admin/admin admin/password or admin/motorola.

To be honest with you. Most areas are experiencing over-saturated nodes. It's like a water pipe that you and the other houses in your area are sharing. There's only so much water that can go through it. They start prioritizing traffic which causes packet loss and slow speed. They are splitting nodes all over due to this. Hopefully, for your sake it's a wiring or equipment issue. My node split took 8 months.
