Comment 50 for bug 60764

Yes, this is indeed a very embarrassing driver problem, where the hardware TCP offloading in the driver seems to corrupt frames that use SSL. The bug has been reported over 2½ year ago, and nobody seem to have what it takes to get it fixed, or the guts to increase the priority so it will reach the right people.

This affects many PC's, i therefore think that TCP offloading should be disabled per. default until the bug gets fixed in the kernel.
