I had a similar problem with SMC cards and some ancient IBM router equipment,
setting the MTU to just under 1500 (1450/1480ish) solved the problem. My
guess was that the internal buffers in the IBM were broken by being 1500
instead of (1524?) for ethernet packets.. Perhaps it is FreeBSD that is
broken? This first showed up when we moved from 2.1 to 2.1.7.
