write a program to send out SYN's and get back SYN+ACK's and
record them, or just record a bunch of SYN+ACK responses from
your host to other hosts along with a timestamp. Now take
those recorded numbers and see if you can predict the
next value given the previous N values and timestamps and
the next timestamp.
tcpdump can get you sequence numbers and timestamps.
