Packet filtered is an ICMP response that indicates that the ping request was actively responded to with something other than icmp reply. Most likely cause is that the router, or some other router en-route rejected the request with icmp prohibited.


Oops. I glanced at '100% packet loss' and assumed it had sent more than 3 packets. My bad. You're right, there is no packet loss, per se.
