I feel that there is no issue with the LWIP stack becoz when i changed my application layer all resets were gone and things were working perfectly.

The possible source of resets was my application layer.

Thank you very much for the support :-)

Is there any news about that ?

I am attaching two traces here:

1. RESET_4380bytes_133ms: The PC is requesting 4380 bytes of data at an interval of 133ms. But due to some issue it resets the connection.

2. NORESET_4380bytes_500ms : The PC is requesting 4380 bytes of data at an interval of 500ms. NO RESETS. This trace is different from the above trace only in request time interval (its 500ms while in the above trace its 133ms else all other things are same).

The trace (file #13970: Reset) attached earlier is for following condition. PC asked 4480 bytes of data from PC @ 133ms. NO RESETS.

What does that mean? I guess I am thinking in right direction. What do you say?

(file #13987, file #13988)

I'm afraid my opinion hasn't changed - the other end of the connection sending a reset because no data has been received for 100ms is just wrong.

I don't understand why sending more bytes of data should change this. How many bytes is the PC expecting to receive? Can you supply a trace of the two versions, showing one getting reset and the other not?

This is with respect to bug reported by me with ID #20640 which was closed later with out final conclusion. I made some progress in that and I guess it is worth sharing.

Brief History: We had RESET issued by the firmware as well as by the PC.

1. Firmware Resets: There was some problem with my hardware which was solved and the board stops issuing reset.

2. PC resets: I am still getting these RESETs. I have analysed the problem and found the TEMPORARY solution also. But I am looking for a permanent fix. Please refer to the attached ethereal trace.

IP Address: 192.168.2.7 Board, 192.168.2.2 PC

Looking at RESET packets ( 81, 103, 125, 147..) issued by PC, I observed that the PC is issung RESETs because it was expecting more data from the board which it didn't receive in a given time frame (before it can issue further request) and hence the PC after waiting for 100 ms(approx)issues RESET.
As my board is programmed to send 8960 bytes to each request thats why it didn't send more data.

But when I progammed my board for 8980 bytes, all the RESETs vanishes as the PC got second frame of data also.

Does it mean we again have issue with congestion window size?

Thanks.
