TCP reassembly has a specific meaning, and I doubt if that's what you 
mean.  If you reach down below the tcp layer in your OS, and get raw IP 
packets, then you have to do the reassembly yourself.  But if you open a 
TCP connection, the OS will already do any reordering, retrying, and 
reassembly for you.

Give a specific example of what you're trying, and what piece of it is 
failing for you.

tcpdump or wireshark can be used to examine low level protocol issues, 
if you really have such.  And python + scapy can generate pretty 
arbitrary packets.  But I rather doubt that's what you want.
