Am I correct that re-ordering of packets will simply result in the receive timestamp of packet N being larger than the receive timestamp of one or more packets M with M > N? That is such packets are not reported as lost? Thanks for your time and that great tool!
Re-ordering does not result in packets being reported as lost as long as their replies arrive before the end of the test. But any packet that's received with a sequence number that's lower than the previously received sequence number is reported as "late", a simple metric for out-of-order packets. And yep, the receive timestamps should reflect the order in which they were received...
