close it until the problem is fixed in the mainline.
Comment 1 Caleb Cushing 2009-08-01 16:50:35 UTC
Appears to be fixed in .4 (and just when I was about to not be lazy and bisect the kernel).

wireshark dump

I'd like this reopened. I think it may still exist. it has now become intermittent though. Meaning it doesn't happen every reboot. I find the packet loss about ever other reboot (which is why I didn't notice it immediately I don't reboot often). I can still attempt bisecting if necessary. or get any dump's needed.

running kernel26 2.6.31.4-1

I suppose it may be a new bug too.

tcpdump from linksys wrt54gl router

tcpdump was made filtering by mac address to cut down on noise from windows box's on the network.
