Hello,

I´ve been doing some Packet Loss tests and i´ve been noticed the following,

I´m using a USB modem and the following config. in the client, iperf -c
x.x.x.x -u -b 2.1m (2.1m because this is the max Throughput i can get)
so, sometimes the packet loss is 0 % (when the th is high and the network is
free) but sometimes when the TH is like 1000 Kbps or 1500 Kbps
the Packet Loss start to increase (like 20 %).

the thing is, if i drop the -b parameter to 1.5 m or 1 m the Packet Loss
drops too (to 0 %).

in other example if i have a -b option in 2.1m and the th is 1600 Kbps the
Packet Loss is 5 %, but when i have -b 1.4 and the th is 1600 i have 0%.

This why i wonder if the iperf, with the -b option is improving the packet
loss. (maybe the packet get lost between the computer and the USB modem).

Hoping you can help me with this issue,

best of regards and thank in advance.
