Interesting little program - I'm curious - is there a reason you decided to use sockets and hand-craft packets, instead of using pcap ?
Also - I'm surprised you didn't build-in a subnet scanner into this. Perhaps you were trying to get basic functionality into this, and have a higher-level control program , which you could perhaps share ?? I'm thinking this would be useful to probe and discover the less-reliable parts of a switched network, and perhaps uncover faulty wiring, flaky switches, or even unauthorized network extensions. Perhaps even as an indicator of network segment performance at different times of the day. In reply to Re: Network Duplex speed test
