I wrote here about two weeks ago about the problems I'm having with a D-Link
DU-520 with the same chipset. However, mine seems to be working basically,
but chokes easily under load (more than ~2MB/s hang the connection and
produce lengthy timeouts).

Same here:

dmesg|grep NEC

device 14.0 on pci0

Hm, I have seen this behaviour earlier on my system, but it had nothing to
do with the chipset then. Instead ACPI was not doing the right thing and
routed IRQs in a way that was causing this problem. It went away after
disabling ACPI; perhaps you can give that a try, too?

I have a Vosonic XS-Drive, which is basically an USB2-hd, too. See my
previous post for details.

lspci? I thought you were talking about FreeBSD, not Linux.

Well, slightly older here:

FreeBSD stardust.terra.ger 5.4-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 5.4-PRERELEASE #23: Sat

I'm still interested in using my card with >2MB/s and without those hangs,
too. ;)
