I'd suggest setting up a cron job that logs the mtr data on two systems (system A, going from A->B, and system B, going from B->A), so that you can review it if/when it happens again.
I have a small shell script I wrote, which uses a dorky config file of sorts, that can do this for you if you want me to provide it. I use it on my home FreeBSD system, and my FreeBSD VPS system, checking connectivity between them (and to some other places as well).
Something like this would be much appreciated. I was thinking of writing a similar script to mail mtr output on an hourly basis.
Slightly OT, but a nice tool to have running that provides a history of packet loss to various destinations is smokeping: http://oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping/ It won't show you the path, but the historic data is useful. Charles
