   have added to /etc/modprobe.conf

I wouldn't recommend the acpi off for a networking problem where some 
packets work fine. You will probably want to reverse that change.

Make sure you reboot after adding the "alias net-pf-10 off" to 
/etc/modprobe.conf in order to make it effective.
Then make these additions to /etc/sysctl.conf. The tcp_ecn and 
tcp_window_scaling may be the problem. The latter change is just one I 
make to prevent responding to broadcast pings.

# Start CKJ additions for rubustness and security...
# Disable TCP ECN which some routers and servers cannot handle.
net.ipv4.tcp_ecn = 0


# Disable TCP window scaling which some routers and firewalls cannot handle.
net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling = 0


# Disable response to broadcast icmp echo requests.
net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts = 1


# ...End CKJ additions for rubustness and security

Make the sysctl.conf changes effective by the command:
sysctl -p
