[Winpcap-users] Maximum packet size

(SECOND resend; first two attempts never made it)


QUESTION #1:

I seem to recall WinPCap imposing a maximum packet size of 1500 bytes. Is
this still true? (I haven't looked at the code.)


QUESTION #2:

Is there a way to increase this value for both sends and receives, such that
when the adapter has jumbo frames enabled, one can both capture as well as
send packets up to, say, 8192 bytes or more?


Thanks!
