Well, you need to go further than the ICA client to resolve dropped packets. Depending on the link type (Ethernet, Serial, Dialup), there could be different causes for dropped packets. From the server side, check to make sure you have forced 100MB/Full Duplex on the NIC and the switch port (do not do auto negotiation). Make sure that cable is a good cable. If need be, use a cable tester to check the wiring. On the WAN side, make sure that there is no congestion. Check for any high volumes of BECKN's or FECN's (this would indicate that the receiving or sending has congestions, either related to a small pipe or the router is being over utilized). Also, check for any errors on the line. You might need to get the telco/ISP involved to resolve this. On the Client side. Take almost the same approach as you would with servers.

Anywho....that site runs Citrix, and due to the dropped packets, the users Citrix sessions are being dropped/disconnected. Users are typically able to click the connect now button and go back in, but from time to time, have to enter network credentials again. My question, is there a way to make the client less susceptible to theses packet losses? The client is 6.30.1050, web client.
