   If moving it to the other side of a Cisco stops the problem, then the
problem isn't with TCP/IP. Problems like this can be caused by a number of
things, ranging from incorrect serial port flow control setting to an
unusual bug in the PPP protocol (I assume you're using PPP?). You might try
disabling VJ header compression if it's enabled and see if that makes any
difference.
