A method for managing under-runs and a device having under-run management capabilities. The method includes retrieving packets from multiple buffers, monitoring a state of a multiple buffers, determining whether an under-run associated with a transmission attempt of a certain information frame from a certain buffer occurs; if an under-run occurs, requesting a certain information frame transmitter to transmit predefined packets while ignoring packets that are retrieved from the certain buffer, until a last packet of the information frame is retrieved from the certain buffer; and notifying a processor that an under-run occurred after at least one predefined packet was transmitted; wherein each buffer out of the multiple buffers is adapted to store a fraction of a maximal sized information frame.
