I have an Ubuntu Linux-related question.

I've been running an Ubuntu server for several months. I'm very pleased 
with how easy it is to run. Uptime is very good. On the other hand, I 
swear that Time Warner is interfering with my connection from home to 
the server which is located elsewhere. Time Warner provides Internet 
service to both locations. I'm getting dropped pages and seeing an 
inability to submit forms on the remote server. I'm using Firefox 3 at 
home on a laptop running Windows XP. I seldom see the same problem when 
the laptop is on the same network as the server.

Can folks recommend any good network analysis tools that we can install 
on the server?
