Perl sockets seems to need some time to register true average
rate starting to 999 default value.<br>
I think it may depends on system platform (OS drivers/modules)
and Perl version, not from the code.<br>

Hi Leo,<br>
yes I've seen... and I'm very surprised !<br>
<br>
It's very strange because on my node I have marked as isolated
two other nodes (IK8HJC-6 running 0.82 and IK7NXU-6 running
0.203) and with both when the link starts the Ave RTT is 999.00
(in both side), after a few minutes the Ave RTT decrease to a
normal value... I don't know why... Hope Dirk can gives some
help and check the code !<br>
<br>
Thank you Leo for your help !<br>

Erm.. no.<br>
<br>
If there is a problem, it is of my making. I do the timing in my
code. It's got nothing to with sockets, perl or otherwise. The usual
reason for 999 is that the other end it not sending PC51 replies OR
(more likely) the packets are not getting to the other end (or there
is no return path). Bare in mind that the network has multiple loops
and routed packets (like ping or rcmd) can get lost on the way.
There can be some other reasons that are to do with
misconfiguration, but then it probably won't work at all.<br>
