Dropped cals - any issues today?

[sr98user]

I just had a outgoing call drop after about 20 minutes. I checked my router and there were no dropped packets and the NAT entry was still there for the call.

I noticed that it was using the media gateway at 66.62.140.38. When I ping that machine, I get a very high latency.. Most of the times its around 110ms. But sometimes its very high.. If I do a traceroute most of the hops are fine except for the last one.

ping -t 66.62.140.38

FYI
66.62.140.38
from here in So. CA.

average 80-100. But often increases to 200-400mSec then timeouts, for tens of seconds for minutes. I just watched it go from 90 to 500, then timeouts, then back to 80mSec in two episodes.

Not my connection: pings to yahoo.com are without anomalies (steady 50-60mSec)
