That's an intersting theory. I also run an external nic in the PCI
slot of a Net5501-60. In my case the OS is OpenBSD 5.5 and the nic
card is an Intel dual Gigabit PCI-X unit. I also experience reboots of
this configuration under high packet flows. In my case though my
machine is in the Net5501 rack mount case with the 5.0A power supply.

I will arrange to test by swapping to a newer 5501 rack mount case and
retesting.

Thanks
