Well this is not entirely true.  When the net is collapsed of traffic,
my connections hang, because the eth card isn't able to cope with it,
probably because it has to work in promiscuous mode in order to have
two ethernet addresses (not sure about this) and gets too many
interrupts.  Anyway, with normal traffic, I run without problems.
