hmm that's an interesting idea actually, my mtu is set to 1500. im not sure if the scuznet Leeds something lower but I'll definitely give that a fiddle with to see if I get different results. I do have a pds lan card that never fails me but I also have a pds graphics card that I use and unfortunately that lan card doesn't have a passthrough pls connector so im at the point here I either figure out what's wrong with my scuznet/2x se/30's/lan setup or give up on the scuznet and either make a pds 2 slot adaptor or bodge an extra connector on the top of my lan card...
I'd rather either get this scuznet running or use a dual slot pds adaptor but if I go the route of using a dual slot adaptor I don't know if I can be bothered firing up eagle to design a pcb or not (its a pity no-one has release a dual slot pcb Gerber tbh).
from the lack of feedback im assuming im the only one who has had issues with this so im also now questioning if I have a hardware issue with my se/30's. ive run MacTest Pro several times on both and apart from needing to disable the ROM checksum test (using custom. flash ROM SIMMs with patched 32bit ROM's) everything passes every time so im just not sure what the issue is.
ive also tried building the firmware on a different linux based computer incase my Hackintosh has some stage compile problems, and ive also tried different ethernet adaptors. ive tried replacing both the microchip ethernet IC, the Atmel micro, and the mag jack on the pcb, tired using external psu for power, tried different system software, classic and open transport 1.3, ive tried using completely different RAM Simms, two different se/30's, . nothing ive tried has worked so far in stoping this ransom lockups so ive really at a lot for what to try next.
I really just want to get lan working so that I can start doing some programming with the long term goal or rewriting parts of the system software etc but with a way to easily transfer data across so I don't have to use sneakernet
