Experiencing some pretty heavy packet loss with my connection and i'm fairly certain its not my netowrk. A trace root showed the following:

Trace complete.

Does this indicate a problem with verizon or my own network?

The loss is starting on Verizon's network starting at a router located in or near Boston, MA.

Actually wrong.

The trace completes and reaches the site asked for.  As such no significant problem is being shown.

Not all intermediate sites allow full reporting which is the sites with * showing
