| - | I was in the process of doing this (see above) when I could not reinstall the Sprint drivers. Looking for a new set of drivers, I found a completely revamped set from Sprint. Installing, and guess what - the NDIS adapter can not be directly seen by winpcap. Successfully sending and receiving via our software over the Sprint card to our server. | + | I was in the process of doing this (see above) when I could not reinstall the Sprint drivers.

| PK - Decided to take a chance to write super-TCP. Came up with plan. Spent 24 hours straight on it. Concluded it is too big for this late in the semester. But will continue thinking about it as developing a framework for this future work would make a nice addition to the project's report. | PK - Decided to take a chance to write super-TCP.

| PK - experimented with blocking and non-blocking socket member. With non-blocking I crashed my computer every time when I hammered the adapter but did not do this with blocking set. Flag must do something :). Later this day: First fully functioning version of new client / server. | PK - experimented with blocking and non-blocking socket member.

| PK - a few more hours in. I added three more transmission "models" to the client: load,burst and random. I have replaced the processor based clock and am now using DateTime.Now.Ticks to make the code portable to Linux. This means same-machine/same-subnet RTTs are 0. I added the adapter cumulative loss/ooo counts. I added timestamps in acks. Have conclusive evidence that the blocking socket flag does nothing in UDP. Forced to put in Thread.SpinWait every N bulk transmissions so that we don't spill so many segments on the floor, even before they've hit the wire. | PK - a few more hours in.

With a little more tinkering with the Tao framework (which IS Mono compatible), the GUI code could be added back in. | PK - Removed GUI graphing to make it easier to port to Mono.
