Ethernet test program using SOCK_PACKET

Hi all,

We have a embedded system running Linux and we have done a program to test
Ethernet part of the hardware.

Our program uses SOCK_PACKET type of sockets to send a  packet itself ( as a
loopback) .

Our problem is that we receive the packet also when the Ethernet wire isn't
conected. It seems that our test program reads the packet from a buffer and
we need to read the packet that arrive from the wire.


Thanks in advance
