An upper-layer packet is split into 10 frames, each of which has an 80 percent chance of arriving undamaged. If no error control is done by the data link protocol, how many times must the message be sent on average to get the entire thing through? An connection-oriented service (like TCP) does error checking and requests data to be resend. The packet has several options for error free transport. Connectionless service (think UDP) does not check for undamaged arival. It has a much smaller packet size and is also faster.
