We have tested swsvpkt and discovered problems on laptops with mobile
networking (i.e. wireless). It seems that swsvpkt continues to try to
use the wifi interface, even when it isn't configured (or connected).
None of the DOS apps will receive packets until the "Software Systems
virtual packet driver" is disabled from the wifi interface and the
system rebooted. Or until the wifi connects and in configured on a
network.

Is there a command line methon of telling swsvpkt which interface(s) to
use? Somehow it would be good if it could see the windows routing table
and establish automatically which interface it should use for which
address.
