This is not true ! A Gigabit card itself never uses jumbo packets if you
don't tell them to use it. With jumbo packets it should be possible

No, it was the shell that failed, you used globbing with the *.
Try it with . and you can see, that it works. Even here it's recommended
to user -c arcfour (as proven in the rest of your results that it's
the fastest encryption at this time).
