Greetings,

Has anyone seen problems using one of these beasts? Currently it works
when traffic is small and low. When larger packets are sent, it hangs. I
recreate the problem by using the following command:
		dd if=3D/kernel bs=3D8192 of=3Dxxx (where xxx is on a NFS
mounted file system).

My config is 4.5 (Monday's build) running on a Dell PowerEdge 350
(PIII/850). The 3C996-T is in the one 33MHZ PCI slot.

Any help is very much appreciated.

Thanks,

-Chris
