Igor & Dsl,

I'm starting to think that something else is going on here. I don't see problems here and now have lwIP in 4 Cyclone/NIOS-II products. I even implemented telnet as a debug console and have no problem with the 1-byte payloads that occurs when you type in Telnet. However, none of my chains are 1 byte because lwIP has made them bigger adding TCP/IP headers. Maybe you have an lwip option set which causes this?
