None that I remember of. The driver suffered some breakage when changing the mtu while the interface is up but it has been fixed since february (i.e. way before 2.6.16-1.2111_FC5). >>From a cursory glance at the documentation, I see no specific low limit for the mtu. So... Does it break when you lower VELOCITY_MIN_MTU ? -- Ueimor
