[Winpcap-users] stop getting packets from a NIC on blade server

Hi,

I am writing a network sniffer that uses WinPCap  3.1 Beta on Win
2000\2003 servers.
This application works fine under any server I have used till now,
but recently I have installed it on blade server, and crossed strange
behavior :

When my application starts it is capturing packets from period of time
, then packets stops for any reason.
When using other application that uses WinPCap ( Packetyzer ) I get the
same result ( even when their buffer is not full).
When I use Ethereal in regular mode( not displaying packets in real time
) also the packets stops after few seconds , only when I check the
option of  " Update list of packets in real time" packets are being
captured all the time.

Is there any time out that tell the adapter \ driver to stop capture ?
What different setting the Ethereal is using when checking the real time
option ?

Thanks
