A few years ago I experienced issues with an ALIX board and a high power
Ubiquiti/Atheros-based mini-PCI card .. if memory serves I think it was
an XR-2 .. in that case though the miniPCI card would sort of brown ou

Enough packet flow over any ports on the lan1741 (not necessarily tiny
packets either: a few thousand 1500-byt
