Hi and thanks for your help. Yes you're right and it makes sense. I have 2 servers (running Auto nego. set as Full duplex) connected to an old switch (10/100) running Auto nego. set as Half duplex. As mentioned before, when pinging with the default 100 bytes I merely lose packets. But when sending packets grater than 200 bytes I lose all of them. What I understood is that when the switch sends a packet to the server, the server replies too fast to for the switch and generates (Late collisions). I hope this is correct. I was unable to check that on the router cause there was another switch in between!!! I changed every thing to Full and NO auto negotiations.

I've been wondering about this and still can't think of another really good reason why this might happen except for a duplex mismatch. I'd love to find out what is causing this. Thanks!
