next hop packet loss

Sorry, I do not give verbose responses via iPhone on that small device
with my tired old eyes. I ran Wireshark this morning.

Without sniffing packets, the layman's description of problem is "I
can't get to vendor web site, http://www.CheckPoint.com, on Time Warner
Business Class network I use." Hence, http is blocked in addition to
ICMP.

It is what it is. Personally, I plan to use the phone to reach Check
Point since TCP/IP won't work. I also got call back from top local
executive at Time Warner this morning that has known me 17 years,
understands the problem and is trying to help. Again, no emergency here.
Still, I would like it to work and pay extra to have the commercial
connection with service level agreement.

Well, you haven't provided any proof of that. Their website works just
fine for me (TM).

Since your troubleshooting is limited to methods that are blocked by
Checkpoint's network, you might need to revisit how you're going about
diagnosing the problem you're facing.

In any case, I won't be providing any further input following that
response.
