I found that the link_reset didn't re-establish link correctly when I just moved that cat5 cable between the switch and the hub, but on a fresh usb hotplug, it did connect and run stable for me.

The attached patch repairs this. Apply it after the Brownell patches. Let us know if it fixes your problem.

Unfortunately it doesn't :(

I can confirm that it does only happen in half-duplex mode. Full-duplex connections seem to work fine.

What is even weirder is that it doesn't _always_ happen. Sometimes I connect the adapter and it works fine. It even survives ping floods with no packet loss at all. Other times I connect it and start a regular ping (1 per second, etc.) and it stops responding after just a few seconds.

By the way, there is more traffic on this network than the one I generate myself. Maybe there is some broadcast packet that the adapter is receiving that is making it go berserk, and that would explain the random nature of the lockups...
