Date: Sun, 22 Jun 2008 18:09:16 +0000 From: "Justin Mattock" <justinmattock@...il.com> To: "Linux Kernel Mailing List" <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: stuck tcp connections 2.6.26-rc7 Hello; I too am experiencing internet connectivity problems, for a while I thought It was due to low bandwidth(or being ddos attacked) but yesterday I noticed with watch netstat -ntu send-Q was stuck on a number; the connection would not go to TIME_WAIT resulting in music to pause, and t.v. to freeze. In my experiences running xmms streaming music is fine, no problems, but as soon as you watch something with flash player the stream start's getting really bad. In the past with older kernel's I usually can watch t.v.(with flash) and stream music at the same time without any trouble. lately I've been Running the kernel in No forced Preemption with a time frequency at 100. having the kernel set in this mode really shows the connection problems, but if I change the preemption to another, and bump up the timer frequency the poor internet connection is not as bad(or stuck tcp) but still prevalent. more pops in the music, and sudden internet loss for around five seconds, then goes back So from over here streaming music has no problems from what I can see, but as soon as I watch media, it becomes a mess. regards; -- Justin P.
