Subject: Kernel driver r8169 not working for Realtek 8111E onboard network card

Hello.

I am having trouble with the r8169 kernel driver for Realtek 8111E network card.
The NIC works intermittently and horribly with this driver. Unusable.

Below is my config. I am happy to provide any and every other necessary information to help in solving this.

Thank you.

Motherboard: ASUS P8P67(REV 3.1)

Kernel: up to 2.6.39
