[lwip-users] Issues receiving streaming data

[JM]

I'm using lwIP in raw mode to receive streaming data.  It's Shoutcast streaming audio, so what basically happens is I send a HTTP "get", and the server starts sending data.  All lwIP has to do is ACK.  The application doesn't have to send anything else.  Right now, I'm just throwing away all received packets for testing purposes.  The code I'm using is below.  tcp_recv() has been used to specify "newdata" as the callback.  I'm using tcp_err() to try and trap errors, but there aren't any.  Also, "newdata" isn't being passed any errors. 

Also below are the #defines in lwipopt.h.  I'm a little confused as to the exact meaning of some of the memory options, mainly the ones that opt.h describes as being for sending data.  In my application, I have to send very little data.  They are short packets, and very infrequent.  I'm also trying to keep RAM usage as low as possible as I only have 64K on a Luminary ARM micro.

I've included two Wireshark captures in an attached .zip file (please add .zip to filename).  The one labeled "lan" is when the server was my computer on my LAN, and the one labeled "wan" is a streaming audio server on the Internet.  I've verified these both work fine when a computer is is playing the stream.  On the "lan" trace, there is a perfectly repeated Dup ACK and retransmission that should not be happening.  On the "wan" trace, the connection just seems to break down before I close it.  This is similar behavior to all other Internet streaming audio servers, so it's not just this one. 

I'm at my wits' end on this.  It must be something simple I'm missing.  I've tried defining LWIP_PLATFORM_DIAG to send debug output through the UART, but I get tons of compile errors because it doesn't seem to like the text strings (I am using sprintf).  Any help would be appreciated.

    pbuf_free(buf);
    return 0;
}
