I think you might be using the ascii mode which assumes signed values
(hence max of 2^31)

Hi Oren,
I seem to remember having this problem myself a while back. My
memory is a
bit hazy, but I seem to remember that in one of the ioreg modes I
could
write values >2^31, and in the other one I couldn't. I just can't
remember
which was which.
If I had to guess, I'd say that you should try writing in the binary
mode
because the ASCII mode is broken.
Cheers,
Peter

Subject: [casper] borph register value limit?
Hi, I've noticed a funny limit on the largest value I can write to a
unsigned 32 bit BORPH register. This arrises when I try to set a 10GBE
transmitter to send to IP adddress 226.0.0.1
I've tried decimal and hex representations, but the command seems to
fail
for values bigger than 2^31. Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Oren M.
