Not a missed packet or is it?
Author
What happens is that I send out a packet and it ends up not showing up on the server til I send another packet. The packet that I sent doesn''t show though. I''ll show you a diagram
This should be the flow
Packet1
Packet2
Packet3
This is what happens
{Nothing}
Packet1
Packet2
{Packet3 waiting}
I think it has something to do with reconnecting too fast. Any suggestions?

Are you using MFC or no? er you''re using VB right?
Look for a .Flush command on the socket, they work a little like files, if you don''t flush (or close the file) it generally doesn''t happen right away.

By default, socket have zero size send buffer. It mean, that packets go to network immediatelly.
What does your packet structure look like? I could probably make a more educated guess knowing that.
I'm willing to put money on streamed connections from VB having a whole bunch of connection masturbation in them!
It would never work right if it sent every bit as you wrote it!
When you sent something a packet would get launched for every 4bytes you sent out!
If you were in a loop, sending 4bytes each loop, it would send a packet for each loop! at zero delay. Which is not what you want, loop loop loop.... flush packet sent OR if the packet fills up while looping a packet gets sent.
