When I try linux<->linux the client hangs when > 44 bytes are sent back to
it. When the telnet client is W2K and my linux is the server there seem to
be no problems.
I think the telnet client always sends very small packets (because I type
much slower than the IRDA connection). But it receives large chunks of data
back from the server side. So the problem is probably not related to which
side is client, but just how big the received packets are. This explanation
fits with the results from the test with the W2K client. The W2K client
sends small packets and the linux side gets small packets that don't cause a
problem. The linux side sends back large packets to W2K which doesn't have
a problem receiving them. If this theory is correct, then the problem is
related to receiving large packets.
