Hu? I even got no data in tcpdump. Use turned of rp_filter (spoofing
protection), didn't you?

You cannot simple use 0.03c with Kernel 2.3.99+. Use my patched version
on http://flummi.de/~kju/siemens_dvb-0.03c-2.3.99-1.tar.gz instead (tested
with 2.3.99pre5).

I'm not using Cyberlogin nor Transponder 113-115. I'm using test transponder
103 which is not very much stable. I had the problems with data flowing on
this transponder too with old drivers and kernel 2.2.*, but with my patched
one and kernel 2.3.99pre i can make stable downloads (once i downloaded
three debian cds (total 2 gb) in 4 hours in 3 concurrent downloads each with
50 kb/sec).
