Subject:   "high speed" tcp connections over pptp terminate unexpectedly
Message-ID:  <200608241443.28431.nvass@teledomenet.gr>

Hi all,

I have a weird problem. It seems that tcp over pptp can not handle
high speeds and connections terminate with no obvious reasons(at
least to me). The tcpdump is from 6-STABLE, but I also have a
7-CURRENT machine I can test/try things. I have tried with fetch,
konqueror and opera. The results are the same every time, the
connection will reset eventually. When I switch my default gateway
to a router everything works as expected. mpd doesn't print
anything. Any thoughts, suggestions tcpdump readers?

example ftp session

nik:0:~$ fetch ftp://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo/releases/x86/2006.0/livecd/livecd-i686-installer-2006.0.iso
livecd-i686-installer-2006.0.iso               13% of  696 MB  492 kBps 20m52s
fetch: transfer timed out
fetch: livecd-i686-installer-2006.0.iso appears to be truncated: 100136960/730388480 bytes

tcpdump where the reset happens
