I just noticed that I get bad checksum also with 'config1', so that cannot be the reason.
Any idea why we get bad checksum - is that normal?

The bug somehow depends on kernel and network card/driver, for example
using igb 5.1.2 work with kernel 3.10, but fails with kernel 2.6.32:
/lib/modules/2.6.32-29-pve/kernel/drivers/net/igb/igb.ko ==> fails
/lib/modules/3.10.0-2-pve/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb/igb.ko ==> works
The bug always triggers when I use Broadcom Tigon3 tg3.ko 3.132.
So 'config1' works always, and 'config2' depends on kernel/driver.
And idea how to debug that?
