Joe
Thank you for working this.
I would love to find out how they expect a customer to make the modification
To  "word  0x1A, and see if the 8th bit is 0 or 1, and to change to 0."

I have in turn asked the ct for the lspci command on eth3, maybe the incorrect 
setting is upstream.

Again,  thank you.
Regards
Mary

Hi Todd,

So far I had to know how to modify the maxpayload size, since BIOS have not 
entry to change this, so I had to use ethtool, now I need to get the offset of 
MaxPayload size in eeprom, I ever tried to find from Intel online document but 
failed, any idea?

Thanks in advance,
Joe
