i am currently working on a low latency connection between 2 xbee pro modules running with firmware V 1.0.8.4 i am using API mode and everything works until about 100.000 packets have been received example of the data i get: 00 52 3d 81 32 52 3c 00 01 f8 f9 0e fd c1 32 7e 00 0a 81 32 52 3c 00 01 f8 f9 0e fd c1 the second one is a real API packet, the first is just crap with parts of the right packet in it seems to me like firmware bug quick fix for me was software reset every ~50k packets, but this gives me sometimes bad latency cause of the 100ms reset time can anyone help? ---

Try updating the firmware to 10CD. I bet that should do the trick for you.
