Hi Kersten,

I'm happy that you finally managed to post to the list.

I'm absolutely sure, that there is no local echo
implemented, neither in the sample application nor
hidden in any of the drivers involved.

Not under any circumstance. Note, that the TCP receiver
will not be able to detect broken connections. Depending
on application, you may use a socket receive timeout and
add some kind of mechanism to detect a lost connection.
Only a sender is able to detect a connection loss. This is
also true for the PC side of the socket connection.

Better upgrade to 3.9.8. Version 3.9.7 may occasionally
hang for a few seconds due to a ARP/ICMP bug.
