But -- apart for this being a >symptom of poor design in the modem -- what is intriguing me is >the delay -- 200ms -- so close to what is a TCP_FASTTIMEOUT. fastimeout can't be involved with pings since they use ICMP, not TCP. 14.4K modems usually have large delays due to buffering and compression delays. Some are better than others. I used to see 170ms on certain Intel modes, and as low as 110ms on certain 28.8K Hayes modems. Supra's are usually about the worst at near 200ms. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
