[ENet-discuss] WSAENETRESET in enet_socket_receive

This isn't the same as WSAECONNRESET. I also don't believe a UDP connection
can "be dropped".

I'll fire up Wireshark on his computer when I get a chance and look at the
actual packets. Maybe the TTL really is messed up.

 

Also, out of curiosity, should an error like this really cause
enet_host_service() to return an error? I mean, shouldn't enet just consider
the connection to that one peer to be dead and send an enet disconnected
event for it and then keep working with the other peers?

Isn't that the same thing as the connection being dropped?

And isn't it only sent when you have keep-alives enabled?

Hi all,

 

I'm dealing with a user who is having problems with enet. After digging in a
bit, it turns out enet_socket_receive() returns -1 because WSARecvFrom()
returns WSAENETRESET. Googling around a bit, the error suggests the TTL of
the UDP packet was exceeded, but I wanted to see if anybody else has
experienced something similar and if they found the cause (or even a fix).

 

I'm thinking this guy either has a bad protocol filter installed in Windows
or his router/ISP is messing something up on the packets.
