I wouldn't recommend the acpi off for a networking problem where some packets work fine. You will probably want to reverse that change.
Make sure you reboot after adding the "alias net-pf-10 off" to /etc/modprobe.conf in order to make it effective.
Then make these additions to /etc/sysctl.conf. The tcp_ecn and tcp_window_scaling may be the problem. The latter change is just one I make to prevent responding to broadcast pings.
# Start CKJ additions for rubustness and security... # Disable TCP ECN which some routers and servers cannot handle. net.ipv4.tcp_ecn = 0
# Disable TCP window scaling which some routers and firewalls cannot handle. net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling = 0
# Disable response to broadcast icmp echo requests. net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts = 1
# ...End CKJ additions for rubustness and security
Make the sysctl.conf changes effective by the command: sysctl -p
