Crash if Jumbo frame enabled

Hi!

I have a problem with the 7800DXL. When I enable the jumbo frame (9000), the connection down after a few seconds (but it works during 30s !). The LAN isn't reachable and I must restart the router. The other devices on my LAN can't reach the router, it's not a problem with my computer or network card. The crash occurs only if I use a lot of bandwith. If I surf on the web or chat on Teamspeak, no problem. But if I download Diablo for example in P2P, It crash after a few seconds.

My network card is integrate to the motherboard and it's a Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controler with the last driver. My OS is Windows 8.1 and my connection in FTTH at 300Mbps by Orange.

What firmware version are you on??

It's the last, 2.32c.

It's like a memory leak occurs. If I use only web, it's very long to crash. If I download at 5MiB/s, it's a few minutes later. If I download at 30MiB/s, it's a few seconds.

Try firmware 2.32d and let me know if the issue still occurs

Presumably the network adapter has also been configured for jumbo frames of the same size.

Oh! I didn't saw the new firmware. I try it this evening.

Yes, I change the jumbo frame in my network card to 9000. Nothing to set in the router, doesn't it?

Maybe the problem is fixed in the new firmware :
5. Fixed issue whereby jumbo frames don’t work on PPPoE connections.

I installed the last firmware and enabled again the jumbo at 9KB MTU. I'm downlading Diablo III Bêta at 20MiB/s without crash. I continue to test.
