My guess about the problem with 3c501s and fast servers would be the small
buffer on the 3c501. The 3c501 cannot handle back to back packets coming
in and probably don't get them when the server is throttled back to 8MHz
and are overrun by packets when the server is running full speed. I have
seen problems like this before with other products.
