[outages] Level3 Routing...

I see no indication of packet loss in this mtr; others have already
explained how to properly read output. Loss at hop #3 is not indicative
of a universal problem; it would be different if that latency "trickled
down" through all subsequent hops, all the way to the destination.
I do see indication in this mtr of generally high latency (between
London<->Paris), reaching up to 246ms and averaging around 171ms. I do
not know if that's normal or not, due to my lack of familiarity with
said region/paths.
However, as I've stated repeatedly [like a broken record], a
traceroute/mtr from point A to B is only half the picture -- you need
the same from point B to A, due to asymmetrical routing being
commonplace.
