Bizzare FC2 test 1 networking issue

I have a DSL line terminated with a Netgear DG814 ADSL router/modem, 
which is then connected to my internal network .

Im testing FC2 test1 on a Sharp PC-FS2518 laptop, that has a Socket 
Compact Flash Network Card in it.

Everytime I boot the laptop, the Netgear router siezes up and stops 
routing, requiring a hard reset, once reset it is fine, and does not 
cause any problems, something during the FC2 boot is sending a network 
packet that kills the Router, FC1 on the same hardware does not do the 
same thing.

Anybody seen the same behaviour.

I have another FC1 box on the net, so if nobody has seen this before, 
I'll see if I can capture an ethereal  trace of the startup.
