Ah, no, I wasn't aware of that at all.
I still don't know how I'd do that as, if left to its own devices, the
stack sends the ACK out anyway and I have no idea how I'd tack that data
on to the ACK.
It seems like the low level stuff does take care of that for you. Is it
the case that I can poll something to wait for the stack to inform me
that the ACK has gone out and I can send stuff or am I looking at it the
wrong way?
Thanks,
Rob
