As i can see there is no problem with checksum's at all (at least inside bge driver). tcpdump reports bad checksum on outgoing packets due to nature of tx checksum offloading: packet will get it's checksum calculated right before it goes on wire (If you want to check tx checksum offloading you should look on incoming packets on other end of wire). Looks like something is wrong inside ipfilter. Can you test with ipfilter turned off (ipf -D or, if you using module, kld_unload ipl.ko)? > > > > -- > K.F.J.
