Hi all,

I'm getting alot of buffer problems with my internet connection.

I'm using a (Dutch) Mxstream ADSL for Broadband internet connection.
The ISDN Alcatel ADSL modem is loaded with firmware: Active : GSV7AA3.270

As you can see below I'm using mpd-netgraph for PPTP to connect on the ADSL 
modem (interface ng0)
root@Dominator# mpd -v
Version 3.7 (root@mdv.dhs.org 20:17 16-Feb-2002)
interface ep0 is connected to the ADSL modem.

A friend of mine with almost an indentical system also using mxstream ADSL 
had the same problem.
But changing the MTU on ng0 to 1492 (IEEE 802.3/802.2 standard) solved his 
buffer problem.
In my case it didn't solve...

Setting NMBClusters in the kernelconf doesn't help at all.
Tracked the BSD hackers archive, there are some known bugs regarding the ep 
driver and 'No buffer space available'
Still fresh yet unsolved bugs? correct?
