Hi:

   I have two machines attached to a hub. Both using SMC Etherpower. If I
ping from machine "A" to machine "B", with the smallest packet size
(64bytes), I got lots
of lost packets (about 30-40%). But if I raise it just a little bit
(108bytes) no
packet lost! Why this happens ?

Thanks a lot!
Helio.
