I can definitely agree with this comment, you can get all sorts of different 
behaviour disconnecting the cables out of PCs, Routers, Hubs, etc.  And then 
different scenarios again depending on with version of OS you use.

We've just been evaluating a network emulator to do more realistic network 
testing.  It costs about �20K GBP though!  We've found quite a few things 
wrong with some of our products in the few days we've had it.  I'm hoping we 
can test better in house rather than finding out the hard way on 'live' 
customer sites!
