Kieran, Thanks for your reply!

What is the rule of thumb to allocate enough PCBs to handle multiple
connections?

Any dos and donts for using lwIP in threads?

Two things:

1) You should be very careful when using multiple threads with lwIP: it
is not thread-safe.

2) You may not have allocated enough PCBs to handle multiple
connections.  Check your lwipopts.h
