I suspect its time to ask broadcom guys some help :)

I have same adapter here (Hewlett-Packard Company NC326m PCIe Dual Port
Adapter) and could not reproduce the problem.

Try following patch to check tg3 receives correct multicast list (its OK
for me, seen on dmesg output)

[17162.120238]  add mc_addr(ha->addr=33:33:00:00:00:01)
[17162.120270]  add mc_addr(ha->addr=01:00:5e:00:00:01)
[17162.120298]  add mc_addr(ha->addr=33:33:ff:87:96:ce)
[17162.120326]  add mc_addr(ha->addr=33:33:ff:5c:00:02)
[17162.120355] filters=80000001 00000000 00400000 40000000


But if problem remains even with "ifconfig eth0 allmulti" I suspect a
NIC firmware problem. (allmulti set to 1 all the 128 bits of filters)
