There are a number of reasons for packet loss; bad cabling, bad ports, too many collisions on the network, attenuation in the cable, bad routes, etc.
It may work but it is not advisable. Could cause disconnects and packet loss which would interfere with Internet access.
Packet loss is common with switches but not much of an issue using a hub.
It is generally a good idea to implement reliability packets loss recovery at the end of a system, instead of in the middle, because you may need to change the reliability packets. By implementing at the end you will be assured you have the right packet.
A packet may be lost due to congestion: too many packets are sent, the queue gets full, and eventually the router or switch starts dropping packets. It may also occur due to different failures; including temporary cabling problems, problems in a switch or router, etc.; these in turn can cause temporary problems with the routing information (a "non-converged network"), causing the packets to travel in loops until the TTL runs out, or a router erroneously concluding that a certain address can't be reached. This latter problem might also be caused by a misconfigured router.
Thare are a number of things that could cause compression loss, Like bad valve, rings, or the head gasket.
Yes, it can also cause weight gain. Weight loss could be Lyme, or a co-infection such as Babesia.
yes
Could be canine cushings disease
I do not see how a CB radio could interfere with VoIP service. If the CB radio is creating interference on the line, check your telephone. Or even check your broadband modem to ensure that you are not creating packet loss due to the CB radio.
