Hi Again Everyone, Just to let you all know, this morning I changed the 7200 router serial interface clock to int and left the 7500 clock set to line, this actually made the connection worse, I got 5% packet loss as opposed to 1% packet loss when both router interfaces were set to line, I changed it back and it returned to 1% packet loss so then I changed the 7500 interface clock to int while the 7200 was set to line and this appeared to have little affect, still getting lots of input errors on the 7200 and 1% packet loss. I'm wondering now if we have a faulty ds3 card.
I logged into the routers and did some ping tests, pinging the routers own serial interface I still get the 1% packet loss. I did this on both routers, I thought this might rule out the actual line because I'm not pinging across the ds3 connection please correct me if i'm wrong. Somebody asked if scrambling was on but I'm not sure what scrambling does or how to check if it's turned on or off so i'll look into that too. Thanks for everybody's help and I'm going to spend all day checking out what you've said and going through the troubleshooting stuff from cisco and i'll let you know how I get on. Anymore advice would be greatly appreciated.
