Sorry for the previous mail, I hit "send" too early... Regarding your problem, have you tried to use winpcap 3.1beta3? What is the timeout you use when you open the adapter through pcap_openXXX? What operating system and adapter?

Sorry if this type of question has been asked before...but here goes. We have written a audio recording package, using winpcap 3.0, the basic source is while(true) { if ((res = pcap_next_ex(adhandle_, &header, &pkt_data)) <= 0) { //Winpcap error switch(res) { case 0: if (timeout_counter == 0) { LOG_0("WinIpCapture::Capture, pcap_next_ex, timeout"); } break; case -1: LOG_0("WinIpCapture::Capture, pcap_next_ex, error occurred"); break; case -2: LOG_0("WinIpCapture::Capture, pcap_next_ex, EOF was reached reading from an offline capture"); break; } } else { //Log that we got a udp packet if (log_counter == 0) { LOG_0("WinIpCapture::Capture, processing raw packet"); } //Do stuff with the packet..... } } The opening of the adapter is a copy and paste of the examples in the documentation. This application ran for months in house, when it was put on a client site the application does not last more than a couple of days. At first I thought it could be hardware related, so we put the original machine out on site, same behavior. It does not seem to be stress related, as it the application can last anywhere from a couple of hours to a couple of days. >From what I can see in the application log, the call from pcap_next_ex never returns. No exceptions are thrown by the packet processing code. Can anybody suggest where to start looking?, has anybody seen similar behavior? Thank you in advance.
