B-O,
Yes, TinCanTools is pretty responsive for such things, so it was fixed pretty quickly after you reported it...

That’s great!
I reported this over 8 month ago, so it’s good to know someone took notice.
BR,

> In case you have problem with a second NIC in the PCI expansion bus using the silver jaw lure, the problem is the violation of PCI timing as the PLTRST# signal is not used to reset the NIC. They use the PWROK signal to reset the NIC and on a reboot the PWROK remains high. In the case of full reset from PCI reset register the PWROK gets initial low and then high, but violates the PCI bus reset protocol as the RESET# signal should remain low for at least 100 mS after power (PWROK) is stable.
