I don't think it will cause a problem, but I'm curious that this could 
ever make a difference.  What is the problem that you see?

Any data packets that get sent before the ACK will perform the function of 
the ACK - they have the ACK field in the TCP header set - and so the order 
should not matter.

Have you tried it the other way round and seen any difference?

Thanks
