TCP Connection Status & Socket Read

I have a socket server program. The client is sending 1869 bytes of data,
but the socket Read function only returns 1392 bytes, and on the
subsequent read it returns the remaining 477 bytes (1392+477=1869).

When I look at the TCP connection status via netstat *cnn I can see Bytes
In listed as 1869 but then paging down I see the Maximum Segment Size is
1392.

I've tried to use the set socket option for SO_RCVBUF to override the
number of bytes per socket read.

Funny thing is that if I disconnect the client, and re-issue the Socket
Accept to create a new socket, and then reconnect and resend the 1869
bytes, I get all 1869 bytes in one read. But then if I resend the same
data again it reverts back to the original problem (1392 bytes read first
time and subsequent 477 bytes read the second time).

How can I correct this so that I can in one read accept the entire string
of data sent by the client?
