Hi Rafa

That at least makes some sense. It would be interesting to sniff the
frames going from, the sky2 to the switch. I suspect you will find
that the first frame TSO sends for a big segment has the DSA header
and the following frames don't. You might want to look at how TSO is
setup on transmit, if you can tell it which parts of the header needs
to be placed on each segment, so that it includes the DSA header.
