Yes, I do. The loss percentage depends on a number of factors other than just
the wireless link (for example, if you are using QoS on your routers) but
generally, I consider less than 10% loss to be normal. You could probably
lose 10% of a flood ping but still manage to send out 500 pings at the standard
interval and lose none if them.
