We'll need some more detail I'm afraid.  At what level are you talking
about reassembly?  e.g. is this in your application, in the TCP/IP
stack, or in your driver?

I'm guessing you're talking about the application.  Apologies if I'm
wrong.  Assuming that's the case the normal way to do this is to modify
your format so that the first word is the length of the message.  Then
you can read that and know how much to expect.
