February 21, 201610 yr Hi. I was looking at the bottom-left part of the dashboard page at: Dashboard/System Status/{Errors}/Network/eth0/Drops (Recieve) When choosing "Errors", I see under eth0 - Receive: Drops: 562039. All other numbers are at 0. What does it mean, and should I be concerned? Version 6.1.6 running 58 days. Diagnostics attached. tower-diagnostics-20160221-1601.zip

(Cabling, interference, bad / dirty ports, collisions, congestion, etc) In your case, the system has dropped 0.02% of packets. Nothing to worry about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_loss
February 21, 201610 yr Author Hi Squid. Thanks a lot - just seemed like a really high number at first glance. I'll stop worrying
