===8<==============Original message text===============

Instinctively, my router was on eth0.3 eth0 was just ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0
up.
So, eth0.3 was on vlan 3 port tagged.
But with this configuration, squid made me madness : paquet were routed to
client maybe 10 minutes after the request (!!!).
Problem i have solved by puting my router on eth0 on untagged port. But,
like i said before, with weird issues on several websites.

Note : with eth0 and eth0.3 configuration, pinging on several interface
works fine
