The firewall's internal interface (tlp1) is connected to a HomePNA switch
with a direct cable (which is new).

I can't do that, the network is in Finland while I'm in Sweden...

I asked this from a user and he hasn't noticed anything in the performance.
But it's really hard to say if this is true or not because the traffic hasn't
been that intensite yet on the network so minor packet loss could be
undetectable.

The "solution" I'm using right now is to add few lines to logcheck's
logcheck.ignore file :-)
