Hi,
today I tried the new driver (tulip.c:v0.93 11/7/2001). After heavy load 
test (two flood ping thjrough the router, about 40 Mbit each according 
to iptraf) I got these messages:

Too much work during an interrupt
Restarted Rx at ...

for two interfaces several times, but router was still working.

But then one interface stopped transmiting, but it was receiving 
packets. Other interface on the same interrupt was OK. ifconfing without 
parameters didn't help, after idfdown and ifup the interface started to 
transmit.

Computer which I tested on was Compaq desktop with  Pentium III 
(Coppermine) 600MHz.

Any ideas?

Thanks
    Tomas.
