Oh yea, you could loose a few packets together and still keep the
connection. We had a dodgy network at one site and these settings masked any
packet loss. But you must keep in mind that all you are doing is masking
packet loss, the loss will still occur, and if its large enough the users
will experience satalitte delay  on their session while the connect is
regained, but thats much better than loose the whole connection!
