I realize that that was your original question and my hoping to show how to confirm that it really was a CRC issue didn't address that. I'm afraid that it has been quite a long time since I have done any CRC in code. At the time, I took a sample short packet from a trace similar to ethereal, then ran the numbers through my algorithm to see if I can up with the same CRC as the trace showed. Steve

If your problem is your ethernet card dropping the packets, why don't you give your localhost interface a go? /Christof

How do you send packets from an external, single-board computer to a PC's localhost interface? -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow! Civilization is fun! at Anyway, it keeps me busy!! gmail.com |
