I noticed a similiar (related?) problem. Configuration:
o 2.1.109ac1 o isdn4linux drivers 980718 (Hisax driver for AVM A1) o happened with gcc 2.7.2.3/pgcc-2.91.50 o P166, 96MB
This problem didn't happen before I upgraded from 2.1.108ac2 to 109ac1. After some hours online I wasn't able to open new TCP connections as quick as normal. I tried to initiate a ftp session to another host and waited about 10 minutes until I got connected. Transfers were very slow (about 0.5 - 1kb/sec). It wasn't a network related problem - pings showed normal behavior.
The already open ssh session to the server I ftp'ed to worked without any problem. Problem was gone after a reboot (yeah - Windoze feelings come up ;)
Some minutes ago - slogin'ing to a server - the same thing happened again. Uptime was about 9 hours, few network activity. ping still worked, TCP didn't want to work.
