Packet loss in a network typically results in intermittent or incomplete data transmission, leading to delays or failures in data reception, which can severely affect network performance. Increased latency is often a result of slowed data transmission or retransmission attempts, not directly caused by packet loss itself. Increased bandwidth can actually reduce the likelihood of packet loss, and encryption protocols pertain to data security, not the integrity of data transmission.
