Bush league. I debugged a similar issue on Sprint's network about 15
years ago, also nailing it down to which router/router hop had the problem
(a misconfigured interface that couldn't pass certain bit patterns and was
causing a particular file we were hosting for a customer to be
non-downloadable by any client who's packets used the bad path), also
using ping, but with a pattern much more interesting than large packets of
nulls...and I had to figure out the problematic pattern before I could do
the ping tests.
But if you want really bizzare, this one never got solved to my
satisfaction.
