I am a litle unclear on the ethernet operation in whole.

This has nothing to do with ethernet directly! Only a
received ethernet
packet cannot be stored. Higher protocols (f.e. TCP) should
resend the
missing data!

Yes that is the reason for my question... I.e. should I just trust the
TCP protocol....

But enabling CONFIG_ENET_BIG_BUFFERS got rid of the problem.

Thanks,

K.D.
