Ethernet hängt sich manchmal auf..

Kopiert man großen Mengen an Daten hängt sich das eth0 manchmal auf und muß mittels ifconfig eth0 down && ifconfig eth1 up wieder zum Leben gebracht werden. auch sind absurde Dropped Packets in den Statistiken zu sehen.
Beides deutet auf einen Fehler im r8169 hin, der in neueren Versionen gefixt sein soll.
