Packet loss ? Distant screen starts to transfer, but stops in the middle

[James Weatherall]

Attila,

There are two main possibilities:

If there is a wireless link involved then moving the mouse while the screen
arrives can cause problems because of issues with Microsoft's TCP stack.

If there is a VPN or other transport involved then the Maximum Transmission
Unit may be wrong, so that the server computer's TCP stack sends packets
that are too large for the transport.
