10gbe, 70% packet loss.

First, I'm troubleshooting this off-site. It hasn't gone well. Netgear M4300 24x24 switch, most of which is copper. Pings between machines (specifically HA IXsystem TrueNAS servers) show a whopping 60% packet loss.

I'm not even really sure where to begin as everything has been reset to factory.

Vendor said 'cables too short', so we buy new ones. "Use Fibre not copper", so we buy new ones. I'm waiting for the 'well, it's your switch' comment, even though there are a half dozen working just fine.

Nothing suggested has worked.

We're not even loading this thing (yet). Just a little game of ping-pong.
