thanks for the tip on mtr...  quite a nice tool! :)  i'm going to keep
playing with it, but it's telling quite a different story after i replaced
all my cables and splitter...  the % of packet loss to 68.103.44.1 (the
first hop from my router) is quite a bit lower than it was w/ the old
cables...  i'll keep testing (haven't tried to keep an ssh session outside
my LAN open yet) and see what happens...  *crosses fingers* :)
