I got fxp cards when I saw that it has native vlan support... But the problem 
is that even with this card, the mtu is set to 1496 instead of 1500...

So, I tried to force it... ifconfig fpx0 mtu 1500

But there are things that starts not working... and other working... 
Any email sent that is longer than 3 lines doesn't pass through the freebsd 
router.. (doesn't get through the vlan interface)

So I guess this isn't a good thing.. I saw a patch for freebsd 4.2 that sets 
a bit on the card to support long frames and sets the mtu to 1500 as default 
value.. Is it available for FreeBSD 4.3 somewhere??


Thanks a lot,

Dominic Blais
