I'm getting Quickbooks error H202 multiple times per day when using multi-user mode:

(CODE)

I can ping between all of the workstations and the QB server by DNS name.
I have been able to cause 100% packet loss by setting the packet size to anything over 23,672 bytes.
Does the 23,672 byte limit make any sense regarding the H202 error and/or does it imply any kind of network problem?


Ping failure above 23,672 bytes AND/OR QB H202 error

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
