So i just got a 1gb fiber connection to my house and im having some problems when i play games i get 3-10% packet loss i have had everything in my house replaced all ready and I just want to know if it is possible to lose packets at fiber connections. I ask this because i have been to other house in my city and they connect to the same main server as i do and they have no problems with packet loss I am trying to get figure this out because the other option has really bad upload and i dont want to switch back. (I have done everything on my end)

Are you playing over WiFi or are you connected via Ethernet?

Do you have another PC you could test, if the other PC is also seeing the packet-loss? Have you tested another Ethernet-cable?

A tip for the future: if you don't want people asking these kinds of questions, you should say from the get-go what you have tried and specify all the relevant details. Anyways, I'll butt out, then.
