I've been experiencing the same thing, but with Rx mode going up to 3
addresses. The card is a 3com 3c509 on a Pentium 200, Linux kernel 2.0.29.
Thus far, I haven't had any trouble, although it's only been up for two
days.

I *would*, however, like an answer to this, even if that answer is "don't
worry about it --- it's benign!"

Thanks!
