Hi Lars; I completely agree... the problem is, the DTU and SDAC clients are on identical networks... in fact, I've taken the cable out of a perfect DTU and put it into a PC. I was thinking perhaps QoS or something tagging the udp packages.
The PCs have Intel nic's. I'm tracking down totally different architectures. Our core is all Cisco networking gear. We're looking to setup a host on the same LAN directly connected to the core, that said we had some hosts in the datacenter getting latency of 500.000, gig connected but on a different subnet. All that aside, the Sun DTU's work perfect on the same network. We're going through everything with a fine tooth comb, but I'm not optimistic. More thoughts?

As the list can testify: One returning problem is Low end flaky L2 switches with a gigabit input from the CORE switch and 100Mbit link out to the DTU. These L2 switches drops UDP packets and forces the DTU to ask for them again . Hence the Laggy screen updates. Now heres a long shot..... if you are using mainly the same brand pc , do they all have the same LAN Card / CHipset ? There are many kinds of problems with Chinese wierdo combines of PHY / MAC chipsets. They come up with new combinations every week just to be able to produce the motherboard 5 cents cheaper. Should you try an Intel Pro1000 GT Desktop adaptor ? I think so. http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/adapters/pro1000gt/pro1000gt-overview.htm This is probably the the most stable ethernet card today, since 3COM stopped making ethernet cards. Did you try to attach the PC directly to core switch yet ? //Lars _______________________________________________ SunRay-Users mailing list [email protected] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/sunray-users _______________________________________________ SunRay-Users mailing list [email protected] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/sunray-users
