Hi!  I am having an issue with downloading on a Dell D600...

Basically, whenever I try to download a reasonably sized file (> 2MB or
so) the transfer hangs - completely.  Once it does hang - it won't
restart - it's like the packets quit coming, or they aren't able to be
reassembled.  This doesn't happen everytime, but it is at least 80-90%
of the time.  Small tranfers work fine, loading a web page is fine and
quick, but any large transfer gets screwed up.

The network adapter lines in dmesg:
Oct 18 12:14:00 localhost kernel: eth0: Tigon3 [partno(BCM95702A20) rev
1002 PHY(5703)] (PCI:33MHz:32-bit) 10/100/1000BaseT Ethernet
00:0d:56:79:65:d7
Oct 18 12:14:00 localhost kernel: eth0: HostTXDS[0] RXcsums[1]
LinkChgREG[1] MIirq[1] ASF[0] Split[0] WireSpeed[1] TSOcap[1]


Has anyone seen this problem or know of anywhere I may look to help fix
it?

Thanks!
-brad
