Original Problem: Games became laggy, when I went to pingtest.net and ran a test, the Packet Loss test failed.

Fixes Tried:

- Contacted Comcast Customer Support, they reported a clean health check on my line, and restarted the modem a number of times.
- Power-cycling everything (of course)
- ran ipconfig /all, tracert to comcast.net, ping to Google as well as default gateway.
- Changed subnet mask of router to be 255.255.255.0, the same as what was displayed in ipconfig /all
- Tried to change DHCP settings to reserve 10.0.0.1, my "Default gateway". Was/is set to 10.0.0.2-10.0.0.200.
- Numerous google searches for posts of similar problems, couldn't find anything.

I think I've narrowed down the issue, I'm not certain why it's causing packet loss, but I can't ping my default gateway. Pings to any outside source work fine, pinging localhost works as well, traceroutes to XFINITY by Comcast -- Official Customer Site | Email | Watch TV Online work fine.

Below is the results of an ipconfig /all command on my machine:

I'd be really happy if someone could help me resolve this problem, gaming is actually a source of income for me, and I can't play with this amount of packet loss.
