another part of the story...problem started with a rtl8139 if
on the side of the micro it have been failed time to time,
the transciever has gone mad, and packet traversal has become 20% ;)
so...we tried a 3c940 to put it on the router side - the card don't
take up the link...
we tried rtl8169 - like the 940
so, we bought 2 brand new 3c905tx, i'm not sure(because at this time
was a hw change, and i've rewrote nearly everything in a new style...
so i don't suspected hw issue, but i will try an intel100 ;)
