R8169 deteriorates quickly.

Description

I have a new motherboard (Asus A88XM-A), which has a built in Realtek NIC. The R8169 driver loads okay, and it works for a while, but eventually just stops. This seems to be a byte count thing, rather than a time thing. RSync shows the problem with the first file that is larger than 2 GB. It just stops transferring at about 2 GB (I think).

RtlChipId.exe shows this:
Found Realtek NIC at bus 3:0:0: 10EC:8168 version 39 (RTL8168g/8111g)

Testlog attached.

Additional: I inserted an Intel NIC, used the Multimac driver, and that works properly, so the cable etc. would seem to be okay.

I just realized that this should be reported at the Arca Noae bug tracker. I will do so...
