Hello,
I'm building an application that needs to capture all packets travelling on a 
NETWORK. Testing my application on a network with a packet rate of 10Mb/s, 
everything was working fine, and the number of packets captured by Ethereal 
was equal to the number of packets the application reported to have captured. 
However moving on to a network with a packet rate of 20Mb/s, and the rate of 
packet loss was almost instantaneous. I tried increasing the size of the 
kernel buffer but to no avail. Is winpcap designed to capture that many 
packets on such a fast network? My application is divided into 2 threads, the 
first takes every captured packet and enqueues it into a queue, so that the 
other thread does the requried processing on the captured packets.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks Alot
Sherif
