The dropped packets are relatively consistent, but update at a slower interval, like once every other time the RX/TX packet counters are updated. Also, I have another host on the same cable modem that does not have any dropped packets ever. The only difference is that it's running shorewall and is a gateway to the internal LAN. There's something that host is doing to address these packets so they're not counted. >
