Justin,

One other thing you might try is downloading and installing our latest 
igb driver from e1000.sf.net.  It looks like you are currently using the 
in-kernel driver and it is possible that there may be differences 
between the two that could resolve the issue you are experiencing.

If you are able to reproduce the issue with the Sourceforge driver then 
that will provide valuable information.  Once we have reproduced the 
issue with the Sourceforge driver, we would be able to provide you a 
debug driver so that we can narrow down this issue further.

Thanks,

Alex
