A drop in that output indicates that the packet was lost on the local 
machine. It's not a hardware issue on the network so changing out pieces 
of the network isn't going to change it. If it was a higher percentage 
I'd look at whether a NIC with better offload was warranted, or a CPU 
upgrade, or whether the system was running network-related software that 
could be upgraded to something more efficient, etc. There's more 
debugging that could be done if needed, but for .01% I'd write it off as 
a momentary blip, maybe related to load during startup of a network 
service, and ignore it unless it started growing.
