Cool. Glad to hear you're progressing well.

I believe the NETTXF_data_validated or NETTXF_csum_blank flags should be set
in the rx structure's flags in order to indicate that checksum has not been
done... Are you checking for this?
I'm not really very familiar with this code, this is just something I had a
vague recollection of existing and was therefore able to dredge up in the
code. It's got a lot more complicated than I remember!
Cheers.
