If moving it to the other side of a Cisco stops the problem, then the problem isn't with TCP/IP. Problems like this can be caused by a number of things, ranging from incorrect serial port flow control setting to an unusual bug in the PPP protocol (I assume you're using PPP?). You might try disabling VJ header compression if it's enabled and see if that makes any difference. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
