Hummh.  This suggests to me that the problem cannot then be in the KPC3?

KPC3 KISS delay problem... if you cycle the power rather than pop it in
and out of kiss mode, does that reset it as well?

I don't know. I would assume so, but I have always exited KISS mode and
then re-entered it. Anyone else?


I would think so too. To me, the issue with the KPC3+'s holding packets
seems to be some sort of buffer shift over time, or maybe a circular list
that gets its offset decremented when it exceeds the number of individual
elements in its array. Resetting the power should flush the buffers/memory
and put everything back like it was. This is mostly speculation on my part.
But we do have a KPC3+ running at our EOC that is accessed via AGWPE, and we
have that XP machine set to restart every morning at 3:35AM. It seems to not
exhibit the problem once we added the restart of the machine to the
scheduled tasks.
