It may be too late to answer this but I had some issues with e100 on 2.6 too and I found 2 ways to workarround these MTU/VLAN issues: - you can use iptables to force a lower MTU on forwarding traffic like this: iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -j TCPMSS --clamp-mss-to-pmtu iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -j TCPMSS --set-mss 1418 - or visit http://www.candelatech.com/~greear/vlan/cisco_howto.html and look for eepro section. I know it is old stuff but I'm almost sure I've used it on a 2.6 box with success. Sorry, my mind is failling... Hope it helps...
