ok for everybody how's also's working with the dp83820 i've
somp partial results.

i disabled priority queuing for the moment and started
debuging the vlan-tag stuff.

at the moment it seams that:
it looks like that the 83820 inserts the vlan tag corretly
and callculates CRC. on the receiving side it detects the
vlan-tag. but don't run with the idea that you may ask for
automaticaly strip of the vlantag again. if you try the
83820 gets confused with its own calculated CRC. when
calculating CRC it must include the vlan tag on one side
exclude it on the other side.

how this works with priority queueing ?
