packet loss question

[Phillip Lynn <phillip.lynn () netwolves com>]

Hi all,

  I am writing because I do not understand what is happening.  I ran 
mtr against our email server and www.teco.comand below are the results.  
I am not a network engineer so I am at a loss.  I think what I am seeing 
is maybe a hand off issue, between Frontier and Level3Miami2. If I am 
correct then what can I do?

  My system is running Centos 6.5 Linux.

Thanks,

Phillip
