[Bad CRCs when upgrading from 1.9.9 to 2.1.1]

  Since downgrading didn't fix the problem, I started wondering
whether the packets really came up as bad from the ISP.  I just tried
plugging the modem into the computer I used as gateway before I got
the Soekris, and on that one I do get the usual download rate.  So the
problem is on my side.  Fine.

  Now, is it a software problem or a hardware problem?  How can I
know?  If it were hard, wouldn't *all* packets come up as bad?  On the
other hand, if it were soft, wouldn't downgrading have fixed it?

  I'm very much open to ideas -- 5 kB/s is really slow when you've
grown used to a hundred times that speed :-/  How can I diagnose
further?  Can I test the USB port somehow?

Roland.
