8139 failures related to packetsize?

[Bernd Stahlbock]

Hello,

I've many problemems with our embedded pcs that  have the 8139 chip on
it. There are sudden breakdowns sometimes all few hours, sometimes all
few days only. Now i discovered that when i send pings from a NT
Workstation to the linux PCs with 8139 chips, I get failures (about
30% loss) when I ping with packetsizes 32,64,128,256. But when I ping
with 100 bytes for example, there are no failures. Now I will try to
change the Packetsize in my application, so that it's not near 32
bytes for example. I hope that will fix my problems.

If anybody discovered the same, please tell.

Bernd
