Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to send giant sized ethernet packets (>1500
bytes say 1550) using the current 'de' driver for the SMC 10/100 DEC 21140 
cards.

If not, would somebody know if this is possible with the above h/w
at all? 

Any pointers to other h/w over which giant packets are possible would
be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Rohit.
