It disabled it but I enabled it just for fun.

I now run 7.3.20-NAPI.
BTW. the Makefile is buggy: it does not get CC from kernel's Makefile.
Using wrong compiler can cause for example a reboot when loading the module.
(At least that's what happened with gcc-2.95.3 vs 3.x.x some years ago...)

I enabled TSO again. I write again if TSO causes problems.
Why shouldn't it work with 100 Mbps? Not that it would help a lot,
but I ask this on principle.

Issues on the motherboard or the NIC?
