I bet this is because the network card+driver you're using doesn't properly handle maximum size ethernet packets when they have a VLAN tag prepended (and hence are larger than ethernet max).. What chipset is on your NIC? If possible, switch to a Intel 100 or 1000 NIC, the e100 and e1000 drivers don't have this problem. If you have to stay with existing hardware, check the web page and the ML archives for a patch allowing oversize packets. It's called "the MTU problem" sometimes, but I don't like that name since the problem is on the receiving end. //Peter
