I have a smallish router installed in my office, and there are on average about 7 users connecting to it via Wi-Fi.
Every now and then, the connection break for one or two of us ... and when it's my turn, I usually try to ping the router and get this type of response:
C:\Users\User>ping 10.0.0.2 /t

Ping statistics for 10.0.0.2:
Packets: Sent = 29, Received = 21, Lost = 8 (27% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 1ms, Maximum = 2733ms, Average = 1015ms
Now, I am not very clued up with networking - I need to figure out whether the router is suffering due to heavy load by some users, or whether the router is just suffering because it is poor quality, or whether it could be something else (like my PC's own networking) causing the issue.
Please help me troubleshoot ...
