I am working with two USRPS wired connection with 25 dB attenuator between them so I didnt expect to much corruption of the packets.
The error seems to occur quicker at lower bit rates for some reason , like around after 10s of minutes for below 250 kbps and more like after an hour or more for 1 Mbps. Unfortunatly this makes it unusable for longer duration lower bandwidth tests until I find a way to fix the problem. Has anyone else had this problem with tunnel.py?

I'm not positive that this is the real problem, but I'd say it has something to do with a packet getting corrupted in a particular way that's causing this to happen. We would need to put some protections into the unmake_packet to handle this as a dropped packet and then continue, once we find the exact problem. Tom
