Hello, Please try rebuilding your kernel with the following patch. It should enable usage of MTU up to 9000, from 7200 default limit in the driver. Try it and see if you get any issues, especially on high-speed transfer in the transmit direction. Thanks ** Patch added: "patch to enable mtu 9000"

This is not a bug in network-manager. My guess is this fits better as marked against the kernel, so I'm re-assigning this to the linux package (because ifconfig returns SIOCSIFMTU when passed something greater than the allowed value as a parameter). Note that this is implemented in the driver in a

Hi, I came across a similar situation with a realtek 8111DL chipset. If you go to the realtek website, it explicitly says for that chipset that jumbo frames up to 9K are supported. For some of the other (cheaper?) chipsets, such as the 8111B, it does not say this. So this may well be a real limi
