I have an E3-1240 fedora37 postfix system using SSDs connected to a
cable modem that's having problems with dropped packets. There is one
other fedora37 server (E5-1650) directly connected to the cable modem
that is not having the same problem, although it's just routing
packets, not really doing much processing of data. The server with
the problem is using libreswan to create a VPN between itself and
an i7-7700K with fedora37 managed at OVH, thinking it would be more
resilient than the cable connection itself. The problem also happens
without the VPN, but perhaps not to the same degree.
Asking the obvious questions:
Have you swapped the ports around on the cable modem between the two
computers, to see if the cable modem has a bad port?
Have you swapped cables, to see if you have a bad cable?
